Sumario: It is not easy to determine whether humanity is benefited or harmed by the digital technology. To contribute to this debate it is necessary to check out the performance of the digital universe. What statute can it be addressed to it? Is it a reality reducible to physical explanations? Can it be considered a metaphysical reality? This first component of the issue must be analyzed with the greatest care. However, understanding the functioning does not mean that we can understand the uses of the digital and the ways in which the everyday work of the human can be transformed. This second component of the issue will open the way for the ethical trial. The third component of the issue is, in this order of ideas, the relationship between the universe digital itself and the user of it. If it is possible to understand better this relationship between the digital and the “digitized Mankind” Could we from there assess the utility and the damages of the digital for the lifetime? Only a fourth component of the issue will allow us differentiate in what sense the damage of the digital technology depends on its use and in what sense the benefit is intrinsic to it. The goal of this article this is to analyze these four components to propose a critical reading of the digital universe and its update in the society.
