Summary/Abstract: The article addresses a number of the problematic aspects of digitalisation in connection with trends that have been intensified by the coronavirus pandemic. In addition to the undoubtedly positive benefits of the use of technology, attention must also be devoted to the various negative effects and the importance of maintaining alternatives. The author draws particular attention to the issue of the protection of the privacy of the citizen, the risk of discrimination against digitally-excluded persons, the vulnerability of the state administration system and the danger of excessive dependence on large technological companies. The article further recommends the consideration of this issue via the creation of strategies and legislation in the field of digitalisation.
