Chapter 11 of '2018 A.D. or the King Kong Blues' primarily consists of a curated list of contemporary media excerpts and article titles from Swedish and international publications between 1969 and 1974. These excerpts focus on societal concerns such as the influence of religion on the lower middle class, threats to privacy posed by data banks and computers, health impacts of environmental factors, and emerging energy crises. The chapter serves as a documentary collage reflecting anxieties about technology, privacy, health, and energy during the early 1970s.
