summary
Argues that technology is not neutral and gives a concrete claim: the device paradigm hides mechanisms while exposing commodities, so ends start to justify means; social media then coerces participation — example of feeling forced onto Twitter despite hating it and the weird metric of 687 friends versus parents with 19.
