Above all, he focuses on computer security.<\/h3>\n<p>Probably, you are currently reading this article on a device that contains all the salient parts of your life. First of all you\u2019ve given it your bank account information, and use it to move your money around. Likewise it\u2019s privy to your conversations with loved ones and work associates, perhaps even words uttered out loud in private moments. It knows your schedule. Maybe it knows where you are at any given moment. Even more, what you buy, what music you listen to, and who you should date. Talk about computer security.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"element element-rich-link element--thumbnail element-rich-link--upgraded\" data-component=\"rich-link\" data-link-name=\"rich-link-1 | 1\">\n<div class=\"rich-link tone-feature--item rich-link--pillar-arts\">\n<div class=\"rich-link__container u-faux-block-link--hover\">\n<div class=\"rich-link__read-more\">\n<h4 class=\"rich-link__read-more-text\">Chris Paine\u2019s new documentary &#8220;Do You Trust This Computer?&#8221; wonders if that might not contain some potential for disaster down the line.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>In fact, it\u2019s really more of a film essay.

He weaved together far-reaching trends and headlines to form a more holistic meditation on the theme of technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this film, we wanted to pick apart the stuff we take for granted,\u201d Paine tells the Guardian<em>.<\/em>\u00a0\u201cWe wanted to say: \u2018What is the reality behind these things? Which anxieties are well-founded, and what\u2019s just fear?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a result, it\u2019s hard not to enter full-on panic mode. Paine blows through digital threats to life as we know it as if from apocalyptic flashcards.
