Abstract

Digital transformation has long been prioritized by corporate companies, both big and small, in almost every sector, due to the urgency of market rivalry. Digital technology is present everywhere nowadays, and it plays a significant role in our daily lives. The fast development of inexpensive and widely available media technologies, together with almost universal internet connection, is profoundly changing how society functions. Digital technology is transforming how we obtain information and communicate with one another more quickly than before.

Some of the discussion about the effects of digital technology in recent years has resembled a moral panic.
