Technophobic Dystopias: A Theoretical Approximation to the Communication Technology Limits Related to Privacy From the Google Glass Case and Audiovisual Fiction

Abstract

Abstract The subject of this article is the current difficult relationship between the evolution of communication technologies and the implications that its daily use can have on the invasion of an individual's privacy. Many are the science fiction audiovisual narratives which approach this evolution from the dystopian point of view with a technophobic character, focusing on the individual effects. But, in reality, this is something that has become clear in the case of Google Glass, where the fear of loss of intimacy was what caused social rejection in its use in everyday life, although not in certain fields of labor and training.
