We Are All Marvin Now

For the past two hours this Mac has hypnotised my gaze to its white screen and every website has sentries at the door - Username ? Password ? Already registered ? Login When did we become so chary one of another ? Were folks so paranoid in the pre- digital age when existence had not been magicked into noughts and ones in Silicon Valley? It did not seem so.
