Digital Revolution Disaster: Paul Craig Roberts Issues a Stark Warning

Economist and former government official Paul Craig Roberts delivers a blunt and controversial critique of the digital revolution, calling it the second worst thing humans have ever done.

In this video, Roberts explains how digital systems have undermined privacy, destroyed meaningful employment, centralized power, and enabled mass surveillance and social control. Rather than liberating humanity, he argues that digitalization has weakened independence, critical thinking, and real economic productivity.

Is technology serving humanity—or enslaving it? What has been lost in the transition to a fully digital world? And why does Roberts believe this path leads to deeper societal and economic collapse?

This is a hard-hitting discussion on technology, control, economic decay, and the future of human freedom.
