Includes bibliographical references and index.

Chapter 1. Technology and uneasiness in the globalized planet: wasted widespread power in digital screens -- Chapter 2. Unaware producers of information in a world of narrative: people and their lives, as it is and as it's told -- Chapter 3. The intangible power of new machines in the hands of anyone: expertise, illiteracy, control -- Chapter 4. Senses, thought, connections, and disconnections of a divided experience: broken communities in social networks -- Chapter 5. The spirit of the information society, technologies, and citizens: consumers, hackers, the shipwreck of the web -- Chapter 6. Technique and behaviors, trendy, useful, correct: from unified procedures to unified thinking? -- Chapter 7. Children and the clothes of the digital emperor: the ball, the Doll, the smartphone, the animals... -- Chapter 8. Body, nature, machines, a feasible, necessary balance: real and virtual from market to experience -- Chapter 9. Inside and outside devices, the software and the world: humans can search, know, invent -- Chapter 10. Active citizens in a new communication society: WWW, back to the future! examples to aware projects.

"In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, there is a strong sense of untapped potential and unfulfilled promises. People today possess an unprecedented amount of power through their technological gadgets but often remain unaware of how to wield it effectively. This lack of understanding and agency leads to a plethora of societal problems, from passive consumerism to environmental degradation, fostering a sense of helplessness.Considerations of Cyber Behavior and Mass Technology in Modern Society offer a comprehensive solution to this pressing issue. It is a scholarly beacon, guiding academic scholars and critical thinkers toward a profound reassessment of our relationship with technology and society.By delving into the intricate web of topics such as active citizenship, global information production, and the coexistence of consumer technology and freedom, our book presents an opportunity to explore the root causes of our modern-day challenges."--
