I’ve got a fascinating video here for you to watch from PBS’s Storied series. It’s called “Are Cyborgs Really Monsters?,” and it explores cyborgs and why they strike fear in the hearts of humans. The video came with the following note:

Advances in technology are always met with some degree of technophobia—and villainization. And cyborgs represent a special kind of fear inherent in losing ourselves in the technologies we create.

Watch as Dr. Emily Zarka discusses cyborgs and why some people are so scared of them.
