Biopolitical control has intensified with time to reflect the state’s increased control with new innovative tech---gene patents, psychiatry, advanced communication, etc.

Biopolitics in the past included efforts in public health, medicine, psychiatry, public policing and sexuality sciences; for the twenty-first century it has evolved to employ now genetic technologies, biological weapons, global communication networks, and advanced digital analytical tools (Koopman 2014). On top of that, political technologies of control 14 seem now fully submerged in the widespread use of globally distributed, ubiquitous and pervasive digital technologies: a fast-expanding chaotic structure of intersecting apparatuses (dispositifs), within the operation of which are absorbed all notions of ‘the Internet of Things’, ‘algorithmic governance’ and so on – even the over-encompassing concept of the ‘Network Society’. Therefore, the reach of biopower deepens across populations, its impacts are becoming more immediate and intensified, whereas uncontrollable diversities of private and public entities get involved in determining how, when and towards whom power is exercised, by virtue of their access to or ownership of the intertwining hardware and software setups and their management.
