Embrace Your Attention as Currency
Early technology developers, often based in San Francisco, were influenced by magical and pagan ideologies, aiming to liberate humanity through tech. This utopian vision, however, has been co-opted by corporations seeking to monetize human attention, which is now viewed as a valuable resource akin to oil. Individuals often overlook their potential to manage and value their attention, leading to a passive consumption of technology instead of an empowered use. Technology should be seen as a tool, one that individuals can control rather than be controlled by, emphasizing the importance of agency in how one engages with digital platforms.
