The super-law of the www: a monster in embryonic state?

 

Nobody would like to wake up one morning to the view of  Godzilla smiling through their window; just because we choose to ignore science’s monstrosities though, it doesn’t mean they ‘re not there – I am pretty sure a visit to a genetics lab would thoroughly convince us to spare a thought.

The internet is not very far from those scary test tubes. It is an everyday experiment where millions of brains around the world come up with new ideas, some good, and some evil. These ideas have the same effect on us as Godzilla: we do not feel the need to protect ourselves until we feel the thing breathing down our necks. But we are there, lost in a world of digits and semicolons, unfolding our past, present and future to the unknown. Would we ever walk naked in the street holding a banner that tells our life story for the world to see? I do not think so.
