Conspiracy theories are a symptom of our new dark age. The last 100 years of computation shows us that big data is always insufficient. We’ve completely undermined any trust in traditional sources of authority but we’ve also spent the last 50 years undercutting our understanding of the world by making technology and the systems around us ever more opaque.
