"It is not only its use, but #technology itself that already constitutes domination (over nature and over people), a domination that is methodical, scientific, calculated and calculating. It is not only after the fact, and from outside, that certain ends and interests specific to domination are imposed on technology - these ends and interests are already part of the constitution of the technical apparatus itself. From the outset, technology is an entire socio-historical project."
#Quote from Herbert Marcuse, taken from his #book #Industrialisation and #Capitalism, 1964.
