Abstract
The article discusses the advent of anytime, anywhere communication capability and its potential impact on our society. It examines the ways in which technology becomes accepted and integrated into our lives, including the role of human values. The report also focuses on both the beneficial and detrimental effects of emerging communication technology, such as its ability to put the disabled and disenfranchised on equal footing with the rest of the online population, and the possibility that individuals will become so isolated behind their computer screens that they will lose the ability to carry on face to face relationships. Finally, privacy and data security are discussed, as well as the limitations of physiology in a 24 hour society.
