Are you already being hacked by the internet

In life, if you only know the beginning of the time, think things are very mysterious, very story, but when the more you know, the less interested, the more boring.

Information is the same, once scarce, people treat him as caviar to cherish, but it is now as abundant as potatoes and even excess, it is taken for granted. In the age of information overload, knowledge is what we desire, but we do not know how to transform it into knowledge. Mass media, acquaintances society, tuberculosis, outdoor advertising information, spam messages, girlfriends, Internet is killing your work and private space, living in an era of information overload, screening information to IQ, and the use of information to courage.

You want to get rid of the information society, but be entangled more and more tightly. We once yearned for the right to know, but should also have the information smoke society in the uninformed right. Most of the time, we abused the right to know. The right to know corresponds to the obligation to perform, the obligation to keep secret, and the obligation to exchange information. Our memory is limited. Not everyone has established their own information management and digestive system. Who is not who information trash bin, who is not who is the information dumpster.

Sorry, I don't want to know. To the mass media, the internet, the crowd sayno, turn off the TV, turn off the phone, reject the spam, eliminate the spam, and control the information like a lunch, you can get physical and mental health and liberation.

To die of knowledge, or to be born without knowledge, is actually so simple.

Sorry, I don't want to know.

It eliminates any suspicion and turns us into naïve consumers and small citizens. It's squeezing us dry. ”

From the first day of the birth of the Jason Media, which is the wind in the capital world, the question is: Is this a violation of our public and private space? Why is it that the United States, where there are more residential and commercial buildings than China, is not born with such a business model?
