too much
The document discusses the need for people to focus less on bureaucracy, regulation, and control, and more on what really matters. It suggests that youth have consistently advised adults to chill out and focus on human connection instead of always inspecting and policing each other. While technology enables both freedom and control, it is up to people to emphasize the former and find ways to use information sharing to help each other wake up and be present.

- 32. 1:24:00, in theinternet’s own boy, Aaron was asked about how he felt the fight was going: you know, there’s sort of these two polarizing perspectives. right. everything is great. the internet has created all this freedom and liberty. and everything is going to be fantastic. or everything is terrible. the internet has created all these tools for cracking down and spying and you know, controlling what we say. and I think it’s both are true. right. the internet has done both. and both are kind of amazing and astonishing. and which one will win out in the long run.. is up to us. it doesn’t make sense to say oh one is doing better than the other. you know. they’re both true. and it’s up to us which ones we emphasize and which one’s we take advantage of. because they’re both there and they’re both always going to be there. redefineschool.com/aaron-swartz/
