The architecture of control based on FUD

It creates the feeling of being watched all of the time.

Initially it was considered to be a good architecture for a prison, but nowadays we have systems like Facebook, Google, Twitter, Skype, Whatsapp, and many more that create the very same situation.
So with the websites mentioned above, big data has put us all inside the prison of the internet.

Many prisons where build on this very system

thank you cheeta.

ahhh yess, what an analogy and how true. being "watched" all the time is basically ingrained into us now.. It is truly frightening to see so many jump right into submission with platforms like facebook, twitter, the gps maps on cellphones and all that.. facial recognition, thumb print scans..
I keep tape on my laptop camera which I only remove if I'm using the camera and a plug in my mic to save the little amount of privacy I can - and maybe that doesn't even work?? who knows! but it makes me feel like I'm doing something to fight back for my privacy..
what a world!

only the truth will provide freedom.

and it's up to the people to have a critical look at EVERYTHING.
ignorance doesn't do a thing
