Social consequences of the information struggle. Selected problems

Universal computerization is growing at an extremely dynamic pace. This applies to the development of information networks and systematically increased computerization of our home, family and social life. There is a growing number of discussions around increasingly accessible information. There is no doubt that the widespread computerization of our lives is largely a qualitatively new phenomenon. A significant part of the society is not prepared for the threats that have arisen with it, such as information struggle, information manipulation and cyber terrorism. Therefore, a justified question arises about the assessment of the real scale related to the depth of qualitative changes that it introduces into social life now and in the coming years. Historical experience shows that permanent social changes can not always be easily distinguished from the often spectacular, but as it turns out transient fascination with technological innovations. This text is an attempt to ask a few more detailed questions about the significance and impact of information warfare on changes in people's behavior and social behavior.
