The issue with Technology is that it is a crutch, and not necessarily an essential one.
In the Second Cycle of 25000 years, there were STO entities harvestible in South America. They were low tech.
if the end game is to learn spiritual lessons and move up the densities, then technology might even be a distraction.

I appreciate the internet as much as everyone else; but there is something about 'our version of tech' that seems most STS (exploiting nature) and forcing us into an economic reliance system.

I do appreciate the moment when 4D and higher is opened up, and we are telepathic, and no thoughts are hidden, and we can share our experiences and learnings directly with one another, mind to mind, with much less distortion.

I don't mean to poo poo your idea by the way.
I agree entirely that our relationship with nature is complete madness -- and that we apply technology to said madness more often than we don't. However, seeing as how our society isn't conducive to spiritual growth, technology is a pivotal tool in many of our spiritual lives - mine included. The internet provided me with every single piece of spiritual knowledge I have.
I also had the initial thought of our 2nd harvest with the low-tech South American harvestables. However, my point wasn't that the harvest has to do with a technological singularity but rather a transition from incarnate 3D life to move into 4D if they've achieved harvestability while alive.
As I said before, this was simply a dream that got me thinking and all anyone can do is speculate. I'll be the first to admit that this idea is in all likelihood incorrect. However, there is indeed a very very interesting exponential growth curve at work in the area of technology that is about to really turn into something unimaginable. I would argue that it's likely to be an event significant enough to make it worthy of discussion.

The Singularity is Near by Ray kurzweil. (For Starters)
You can also find his film, "Transcendent Man" on Netflix Instant.
I'd also like to say that I disagree with Kurzweil on a lot. I think his obvious fear of death is telling. However, he presents facts that are difficult to argue with.
