Humanity and Developing Technology

What concerns does Star Trek raise about the relationship between humans and technology? How do these concerns relate to current discussions about technology today?

In Star Trek the relationship between human and technology inside Starfleet is good. Human respect technology and technology does not overtake the freedom op humans. On other planets it is sometimes different. There technology has overtaken the freedom of hominids and are controlling them, sometimes even enslaving them.

This last option is a concern of today’s sceptical people.

The discussion of stolen identities and privacy is really big on the moment. But not there in Star Trek, what brings me back to Unit 4 and a topic that still could be addressed in the series.
