In this chapter, we focus on public discourse about the internet that has constructed it as a cultural object and often as a pathology. We will focus in particular on the "dangers," such as addiction, sexual harassment and bullying, which in public opinion have come to be associated with the irrational use of the internet. <br/><br/> Through ethnographic examples, we will show how discourse about technology does not, in fact, have to do with intrinsic characteristics of technology, but rather with social and political struggles over social visibility and participation in the public sphere, class identity and work, the borders between private and public, relations between generations, openness to the Other, access to knowledge and information, etc.<br/><br/> In the final section, we consider several basic theories of technological mediation as a part of a critique of the technological determinism that underlies the technophobic/technophilic position. In this book, we insist on the use of compound words such as technosociality, technoculture, techopractices and technoscapes because we want to demonstrate in the most emphatic terms that technology can in no way be separated from social relations, cultural practices and historical experience, whether as an accessory/casing (device, software, application) or as a "representation" of the "real."
