Technosocial Systems are people and technologies that combine to work as heterogeneous but funcational wholes.
technological neutrality: "maintains that a given technology has no systematic effects on society: individuals are perceived as ultimately responsible, for better or worse, because technologies are merely tools people use for their own ends."
Technological determinism: "maintains that technologies are understood as simply and directly causing particular societal outcomes."
