Also, if you're going to claim something absurd like technology and freedom being incompatible, you're going to have to do better than quoting the Unabomber.
You're making two mistakes...
1) Technology being abused to curtail freedom isn't "absurd," but a routine occurrence in our world. From traffic cameras to chipped passports, for every freedom we gain from technology, we lose at least one.
2) You're shooting the messenger. While I also disagree with his pessimistic conclusion, there have been many truths said by those we seek to demonize.
1. Counter example: The development of better agriculture freed serfs & at a later time in the US slaves.
2. Modern travel has freed people from oppressive regimes around the world.
3. The internet is having a liberating effect on the freedom and control of information.
4. Modern medicine frees us from the threats of many diseases.
Technology can be equally used for good and evil.
Modern medicine raises our standard of living by eliminating disease, which is mostly irrelevant to a discussion of the unique causal effects technology has on freedom.
