"More photographs have been taken in the past year than were taken on all
film combined."

"We are approaching a world in which visual and auditory presence at a
distance—seeing as another, instantly—is not a rare luxury good, but a
basic assumption of society and industry. The superpower of unbounded
remote vision is becoming mundane.

Nothing, of course, is inevitable. We could rein in our image appetite
before wearable cameras become necessary. But there are just as many
possibilities for human flourishing as there are for malice in an
infinite-image world. (We will see plenty of both.)"
