The last four chapters in Program or be Programmed (Douglas Rushkoff) are the commands social, fact, openness, and program or be programmed.
Social: people who do not have computers are unable to connect to others. Those who do have a social network should not hijack their connections for profit (Rushkoff 93-94)
Fact: True statements, when communicated digitally, will travel farther than false ones (106).
Openness: learning to differentiate between sharing and stealing will make the Internet a more open place (115), and render things like SOPA obsolete.
Program or be programmed: those without computers will be controlled by those who do.
Those without computers will be on the wrong side of the digital divide. They will be unable to communicate, educate, or share, and will constantly be manipulated by those on the other side.
