Control by design
This document discusses how technology can control and shape society in unintended ways. It references the works of Jeremy Bentham, Michel Foucault, and Robert Moses to argue that technology is not neutral and can either accidentally or deliberately influence human behavior and social organization. The document raises questions about the ethical implications of technology having such power over society.

Editor's Notes
- #15 Lower Manhattan Expressway Map (Public Domain) Paul Rudolph - Library of Congress The Lower Manhattan Expressway (LOMEX), also known as the Canal Street Expressway, was a controversial plan for an expressway through Lower Manhattan in New York City. It was to be a ten-lane elevated highway stretching from the East River to the Hudson River, connecting the Holland Tunnel on the west side to the Williamsburg and Manhattan bridges to the east. The road would have required the leveling of parts of the Little Italy and SoHo neighborhoods. The LOMEX was originally conceived by Robert Moses in 1941, but further development of the project was delayed until the early 1960s. It was cancelled in 1962 in the face of widespread community opposition to the road. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_Manhattan_Expressway
