1. What is "technological convergence" in the context of cybertechnology?
2. As we proceed with cybertechnology research and development in the twenty-first century, continued technological convergence would seem to be inevitable. Few would reject most of the benefits and conveniences that have resulted from this phenomenon thus far - e.g., cell phones that take pictures, GPS technology in automobiles, etc. Yet, we have also noted some controversial implications that convergent technologies can have for individual freedom, autonomy, and privacy. Can you think of any other social and ethical concerns that could also arise because of converging technologies? Identify three to five additional concerns that you believe might have some social and ethical implications.
