Contra earlier (plebescite) notions of ģelectronic town hallsī:
if I cannot assure the privacy of my vote online - if voting online means succumbing to a (nearly) complete loss of privacy - if (worst case) participating in online communities - including debating issues, voting, etc., means complete subsumption of self to the socially-constructed categories and technologies of the larger community (ģglass human beings,ī the ģinfo-panopticonī)
Do I really want to participate?
Are there alternatives to not participating in such an ģinfo-panopticonī?
