summary

Asserts the infosphere recasts humans as informational organisms, not isolated Newtonian agents, and claims 60% of humanity are still offline while a Matthew‑effect accelerates concentration. Describes media becoming reversible with data turned back into objects — camera images sent wirelessly, 3D printing and a robot that recreates a seafloor square meter after remote transmission taking months — and warns speed destroys distance, national and mass‑media boundaries, and raises novel governance and ethical gaps.
