In the Presence of Fear

Berry's essay VII speaks about the attacks as a new invention. We created a system to make our lives easier. This system has now been used against us, exposing its flaws. "We never considered the possibility that we might be trapped in the webwork of communication and transport that was suppose to make us free." In our attempt to make our world more simpler and accessible, it has become simpler and more accessible to attacks.

    1. I believe that this is 100% true. With the advancements in technology it has only come to hurt us more. When you really think about this it is scary to think what could happen in the future. Technology is changing everyday.
