“In the case of Facebook, we have seen that there is almost inevitably a gap between the political system and technological evolution. Facebook and the other big companies are moving very quickly towards the future, while politics is always lagging behind. This was not to be overlooked at the congressional hearing in April: Many of the senators asked beginner questions about how the Internet works.”

– Peter Schwartz, futurist of the software group Salesforce, in “This is just bad science fiction”, in “Horizon” 35/2018, August 30, 2018
