Terrifying. I don't think it would have scared me when it came out. Would've seen as fiction. But tech is scary. It's like the scorpion and the frog....we are the frog, tech is the scorpion. Scorpion asks the frog to give him a ride across the river. Frog says, but you'll sting me and I'll drown. Scorpion says, if you drown, I'll drown. Frog goes ok, that makes sense. Halfway across the river the scorpion stings the frog. Frog, as he's drowning asks the scorpion (who will also die) why. And the scorpion answers: it's my nature.
