What is the Digital dark age ?

dark age: is the term used to denote the Middle Ages in Europe, which is the period between the years 400 and 1400 almost as Wikipedia. But in the virtual world, it means Digital dark age is so much farther. Where it means the periods in which it becomes difficult to refer to the ancient technique records and read for several reasons. Either because they are no longer readable due to the wording or their extension that is no longer of computers and modern appliances recognize them because they are too old and no longer supported, but also because of the devices, which were stored this information is no longer in the present era and thus are talking about extinction and extinction and their manufacturers and even workers out. For example, the CIA NSA known Ptsgeladtha which has achieved the record in terms of the large area of ​​the data stored over the years, have occurred in the problem of the Digital dark age where the data stored in the year 1976 was unable to refer to it because it was recorded on tapes magnetic unreadable because of their extension unknown.

 But when searching for the heads of departments and programmers who have been working with the agency at the time, and that the majority of them either Gedo Tovihm died or left the agency and some of them no longer remembers the method of data processing. Thus, these data has become non-investment. The same problem occurred where the BBC Company and other companies and TV channels that need to store a huge amount of recordings.

Perhaps Digital dark age is the result of the rapid development of technology, so that in each year of new technologies and methods of treatment appear sophisticated data from its predecessor, give us little by little about some of the techniques resulting obsolescence with the passage of time.

Problematic Digital dark age is a modern birth problematic, warned them Google Inc. over the past few months. But one of the dilemmas that embarrassed many international companies, which has become thinking and looking at ways to protect the current approach in the future of the statute of limitations and the impossibility of reference at any time.

The high speed at which technology evolves it makes me afraid of the future, especially with the heavy reliance on technology to humans. Where we are now semi-animated robots, smart phones, smart smart glasses hours ... all this has of future damage to humans and nature
