the technology really doesn't matter so much as the fact that it has exposed a difference in values between people. it has created multiple incompatible worlds, which were possibly always there, but only in theory. it has made those hypotheticals into real choices. it's forced us to all sit down and actually choose. except it's not a free choice, it's not a consumer choice like which toothpaste to buy. it's a choice like "do i avenge my father by killing the man who killed him" kind of choice
