And then, when I come home from an exhausting day of school or a wrenching confrontation with a friend, I can use technology to help me lie. After a moment of calming myself down on the web, I can fake it. “Oh, you know, I have a paper due tomorrow, but I’m doing okay!” Never mind that I’d cried in the library, that I’d spent hours on work but had hours more to go, that I’d struggled with all my practice tests and all I wanted to do was go take a nap.

These are not shocking things. They’re not scandalous. That’s because we’re not always hiding scandals with our technology. Often we’re just concealing the mundane foibles that are an unavoidable frustration of humanity. But we need to pay attention to the things we hide, even if we tell ourselves they’re not that serious.
