Data Is The Pollution Problem Of The Information Age

This is interesting:



The powers that be want more data collection in education, more data analysis, wider use of that data to drive accountability and dissemination of that data to anybody who wants it for any reason that might want it to do anything they might want to do with it.

The pushback ought to be "Turn Off The Data."

We have NOT evolved enough spiritually or emotionally to handle the fall-out from this data overload, this need to multi-task every part of the day, this demand to handle all this complex information in a way that helps us make wise decisions about society and community and people rather than decisions that are manipulated to benefit just a few.
