The so-salled high grade information technology has its light and shadow upon the human and social consciousness. In this essay, I'd like to mention several negative problems which the so-called high grade information technology will bring about. 1. Information gap Information is power. A high grade information society will widen the gap between the well informed and the poorly informed. The gap between the people who have access to any international information data bases and those who do not. 2. Harmfull influence of quasi-experience Information technology such as television and video picture will supply great deal of information which means quasi-experience to the minds of the immature. The flood of information and the easy access to the media will spoil the minds of the immature. 3. The control of information media The person who can control the information media, can control the minds of the people. It is well known that Mr. Regan could win the presidency by impressing his image on the voters, not his policy itsself. 4. Protection of privacy Many kinds of information on individual citizens have been stored in the computer data base of banks and other corporations. This fact means a possible threat to the protection of the privacy of individual citizens. 5. Danger to the health of the computer workers The computer workers always face the risk of psychiatric instability. We have to solve these problems, listed above, as we enter the age of high grade information technology.
