The future is not evenly distributed. “Disruptive” technology leaves the most vulnerable behind, sometimes literally.

For all the ways our bold future world repeats and enables discrimination against the poor, the disabled, and all others that don’t fit the “standard test model”.

OP note: I didn’t think that I needed to remind BBers that Gibson noted “The future is already here it’s just not evenly distributed.” This isn’t about how we’re all going to suffer in the future, it’s about highlighting the “discrimination against the poor, the disabled, and all others that don’t fit the “standard test model”” caused by the shiny toys we have now.
