The digital order refers to a culture that is profoundly shaped by digital technologies. The digital order is reshaping the way we comprehend and communicate as we adapt ourselves to the affordances of those tools. The role of the digital order in human development and it ultimate consequences remains unknowable; however, it is crucial that we have an awareness of its impact and are able to envision its possible effects on human behaviour and culture. To survive in such a moment of evolution, it is essential to be able to navigate in an informed manner one’s own position in the digital space. This paper examines the nature of individual empowerment within this space, asserts the significance of human will and discusses the methods to utilize this technology in a beneficial way.
