The Information Apocalypse
Abstract
The Information Apocalypse is evidenced by the unraveling of trust in American institutions. This phenomenon is affecting not only democratic institutions, their products and outputs, but also news, information and most critically, ideas and values. The decay in public trust goes beyond institutions and also affects individuals. Personal data and identity are at risk. At the same time, the ever-expanding role of technology is not only omnipresent in our lives, it also acts as an accelerant, speeding up not only change but our abilities to keep pace and to control our responses.
