Let us start with the basics.
Computer Files are data resources stored in a computer storage device. These files are identified by their extention and personally identified by its file name.
A file can be grabbed, created, destroyed, opened, read, changed, saved, copied and closed.
This simply means your computer files are more feature friendly compared to paper. Imagine wiping a file without feeling like you've wasted tangible resources. However, what is the other side to the benefits?
First let us talk about the causes of the cons of using computer files or in simple terms trusting the digital world in the way we are taught.
A computer file can be remotely accessed by anyone including you. It can be remotely attached by anyone including you. You wouldn't wake up and throw your paper files in the bin, however, given the right causes. Your computer can even catch fire.
The more advanced technology becomes, the more customizable it will be. Whether that is for growth, expansion, control, limitation, westernization. Whatever it is, we still do not have full control over anything.
For us to go from paper to digital, there would have to be a problem and the solution was a digital world. Is the solution perfect or would it be perfect if it was regulated by a different group or groups of organizations and individuals?
"How can we take over our privacy when the system itself isn't interested by the movements?"
"Why does the system prefer using celebrities to endorse movements that were meant to be for those without such powers? In other words, why can't the system pull someone out of poverty, teach and train them, allow them to run a movement. Why does it HAVE to be someone within their system?
I started noticing such trends in line with the phrase
"When I say jump, you ask how high?"
Where is your ability to ask why or even when?

Censorship and privacy
Enthusiasm about the semantic web could be tempered by concerns regarding censorship and privacy. For instance, text-analyzing techniques can now be easily bypassed by using other words, metaphors for instance, or by using images in place of words. An advanced implementation of the semantic web would make it much easier for governments to control the viewing and creation of online information, as this information would be much easier for an automated content-blocking machine to understand. In addition, the issue has also been raised that, with the use of FOAF files and geolocation meta-data, there would be very little anonymity associated with the authorship of articles on things such as a personal blog.
