Data FLOOD: Biological backgrounds of a technical phenomenon

No, we can't!

Because we exist, like all living beings, only as sensitive bodies with metabolism and constant dissolution of order.
This applies without exception to all living individuals and all communities formed from them.

To counteract their order decay, all living structures incessantly produce and process information in the form of stored order.

This begins with the genetic information in all cells of the body and extends to the streams of information that flow circulating between individuals of intelligent species, including the technical information in our machines, libraries and databases.

This book thus shows that the evolution of information technology and the internet is a natural part of the evolution of life.

Because of the unremitting order decay of living structures, the flood of data can and will only end when life as a whole ends.
