Part 4/6:
The rise of cloud storage services symbolizes a shift in our dependence on technology. Cloud platforms have become the new "phone" — not just off-site data repositories, but integral components of how we live and work. They enable constant access to information, social connections, and even our memories, making us dependent on digital infrastructure to exist.
This reliance on the cloud accentuates the idea that our digital selves are detached but inherently connected to these technological platforms, further reinforcing the cyborg metaphor.
