Long time back George Orwell wrote this -

If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face -forever

Few decades later, we find big brother tyranny replaced by attention tyranny.

Information overflow is the new boot to manage.

Watch out for information overflow. Lot of that will be intentional and with strong motive. Daily attention arbitrage is a productivity issue as well as strong marketing weapon. Depends on how you use it.
