Abstract: This article examines the process of transformation of communication technologies under the influence of digitalization, which today has formed the meaning of the existence of society itself, making it a digital society. The authors meaningfully separate the concepts of “information society†and “digital society†, while demonstrating how they affect the channels, forms and methods of communication between individuals and social institutions. The paper provides a detailed analysis of modern communication technologies and reveals their nature. Considering this aspect through the prism of ethical evaluation: good or evil, allows you to expand research boundaries and show all the components of the communication process in modern conditions. The methodological basis of the work is the analysis of existing communication practices in the conditions of digital reality. On the basis of the analysis, positive and negative factors that influenced the transformation of communication technologies in modern society are identifed by the example of public authorities. The transformation of communication technologies can lead to the transformation of the state itself and the channels of its implementation of power relations, this conclusion is made in the article based on the consideration of political management systems at different stages of their development.
