We live in the worlds where, as you said, everything is designed to make us feel significant,

right?

The fundamental design of social media is to reinforce us in some way that we are what

we said was smart, funny or, you know, sharing.

What, in your perspective, are the dangers of our kids and your kids growing up in this

sort of social media world?

Well, I think it's like, it's the old phrase, isn't it?

If you put a lobster or a frog even into boiling water or jump out, but if you slowly boil

it, then it doesn't realize it's being boiled.

And I think our kids are being slowly boiled and they don't realise it.

And I went to a conference the other day where they were talking about how babies are

going to be chipped and that mothers and fathers will be allowed to have lower taxes and

lower insurance if they allow their babies to be tracked from a health perspective because

of course it will reduce the NHS bill and of course it will reduce the policing bill

if we know where everyone is.

And I think we all have to recognise the fact that we will be sold in very, what seem

to be very rational terms, very economically viable terms, to track our own health, to accept

being monitored in terms of our whereabouts and our physical health.

And I think we need to recognise that that's shit and that's not good.

And I think that the dangers are that on the one hand we will lose our freedoms that I

think are very dear at a practical and an emotional level and spiritual level for people

to actually have freedoms.
