The government, too, is going to have to to keep up with better law enforcement, intelligence, and defense.

Tech's Impact on Business and Society, techonomy.com
Today technology is inextricably entwined with just about every activity that humans undertake. Techonomy embraces that fact, and seeks as a company to help the world take advantage of it. We cast our lens broadly across business and society in order to highlight and explore the manifold ways in which tech’s impact is felt. Techonomy Media hosts conferences and dinners and publishes editorial content, including video journalism. We make our programs accessible to a wide audience because it is impossible to know where leaders will emerge, and because the world increasingly recognizes that, for better or worse, we are all in this together.
