Summary: Culture reduced to staring at the small screens of devices that are instruments of control over their carriers

IT FOLLOWS me around

Notifications inbound What is that sound? New distractions now found

The apps no longer run Upgrades can be fun Oh, what have I done? Politics they shun

Gyroscope always on My data they've won Is that the sign of a drone? Google and Apple just groan

The microphone is my "assistant" at home It knows where else I roam It's integrated into Chrome Intercepted like an ECHELON dome

Phones are all fun and games They connect Jennifer and James Meeting across the Thames Without even knowing each others' names

Enjoy your romantic dinner Face down at the screen reader Who exactly is the winner? Patience running thinner

Life so so much richer GAFAM is your teacher! ⬆
