It  was my understanding that a “totally administered society” was a  negative outcome for society, at least in the eyes of a critical  theorists. This is because this type of society is one that provides  people with a fabricated sense of desire and need that is continually  unable to be fulfilled through material gains (Appelrouth & Edles,  2010). In order to have a “totally administered society”, it would  require those who are unwilling or unable to see how they are being  controlled to be greater than those who do or have a hand in the  controlling. This would mean that education might hinder the control  over society by bringing enlightenment and encouraging free thought. On  another note though, with education being standardized, especially so  early on, it would be easier to control society and conform to these  unnecessary needs. Society also has suggested that a higher education is  required of us to be successful members of society, which plays into  forming a “totally administered society”, but there are numerous  accounts of people being smart and successful without one. 

I  would consider the internet a potential source for both liberation and  domination. It is liberating in that it provides the freedom to explore  and be anything while it can be dominating over people’s lives. The  latter is more so the case because the internet allows for easy  worldwide human connections, but people are so drawn to the ease and  anonymity; they forget the people right in front of them. The internet  is just another source for the bureaucracy to get to you to play into  their suggestive advertisements, whether you realize it or not, and  stifle your individual freedom (Appelrouth & Edles, 2010). The  internet can be addicting and therefore dominating over our lives, but  the internet along with numerous other scientific-technological  advancements have “become the god of modern society”, and those who do  not accept and use them are considered odd (Appelrouth & Edles,  2010, p. 86).
