Technology can make you reach heights. It can take you from one place to another. So yes who owns technology, owns the world. Through technology I came to know about bitcoin. And no I don't own the world. But I think its a step towards owning my world.
Your world and your own life. This question regarding on who owns technology then i would say is on its users. Somebody might able to create such inventions or innovation but those creations wont be effective or develop if theres no much users of it this is why i do consider all of us are the owners.Its not actually who owns the technology would really own the world.
technology is only one part of the equation; until we innovate all the way to total automation, we will require people to operate technology. a lack of skilled workers is what plagues modern job markets; workers are often incentivized to move abroad to persue a higher standard of living in a given career. people are much easier to control than technologies; people make themselves, but unique and innovative technologies dont come around so often.
Technology is just one step, but without it we get nowhere. You talk about workers moving abroad to get a higher standard of living, but what about workers in developed countries? You need technology in all walks of life.
