I'm really curious to know what you think that "cat" is ?

Are you thinking that digital technology is irrevocably corrupted and hereafter can only be employed toward abusive and manipulative ends?

Or are you supposing that because we have allowed some companies to damage society through abuses of technology, that the situation can never be remedied. No laws can ever be brought to bear?

Or are you alluding to something within the collective psyche, making a social-anthropology statement of sorts, that people, having tasted the ruin of apathy, nihilism and decadence will not recover in spirit and build a more positive technological world?

Or something else?

I'm genuinely curious what you imagine is the powerful force that underwrites malevolent entities in the digital realm?
