A Máquina Parou

E.M. Forster's depiction of reliance on technology feels eerily prescient. I'm curious what influenced his thoughts on technological dependence back in 1909.

The characters' emotional disconnection was intense, and it made me wonder if Forster was warning about emotional detachment in technological societies.

Reading this now, it feels like a warning about surveillance and loss of privacy. Would love to hear if others see parallels with our current world.
