DEF CON 1d ago

First DEF CON 34 reading assignment!

As you may know, the DC34 theme is 'Agency'. Wresting self-determination from the machine.

The story 'The Machine Stops' by E.M. Forster contemplated a situation very like our own all the way back in 1909. One year after the introduction of the Model T.

Read, enjoy and share your thoughts.

@defcon I miss that current writers avoid this deep a subject. Especially relivent is how as the system breaks down the people adapt and quit filing complaints.
