Abstract

These eye-catching headlines are just a sample of the headlines that have dominated the news recently. So the secret is out. The Internet can no longer be seen as a utopian place where everyone is equal and freedom is the status quo. Not everything that has to do with technology is simply a “technical” issue. “The technical is political.” There are always values and politics involved in the structure, design and architecture of technology; put differently, these issues are socio-technical and have a deep effect on what sorts of citizens we become.
