I very much appreciate your link so that other privacy conscious people like us can at least try in our own lives to not be part of the problem, but uh yeah, yep, societies that don’t constantly, actively and effectively fight against mass surveillance, fight for actual privacy rights… uh yep, they end in the panopticon, and… well its harder to get out of a prison after you’ve already built it and live in it, without something analgous to prison riot.

Fact of the matter is yeah, yeah, most other people paid for this, because they were distracted or busy or didn’t listen to all the warnings people have been giving for decades, or drawn in by the ‘neat convenience’ of the tech or whatever.

Its the slow blade that finds its mark, and its quite difficult to un-sever an artery.
