Share Surveillance is pervasive: Yes, you are being watched, even if no one is looking for you on LinkedIn
The U.S. has the largest number of surveillance cameras per person in the world. Cameras are omnipresent on city streets and in hotels, restaurants, malls and offices. They’re also used to screen passengers for the Transportation Security Administration. And then there are smart doorbells and other home security cameras.

Most Americans are aware of video surveillance of public spaces. Likewise, most people know about online tracking – and want Congress to do something about it. But as a researcher who studies digital culture and secret communications, I believe that to understand how pervasive surveillance is, it’s important to recognize how physical and digital tracking work together.
 
The surveillance state needs to be abolished. Sadly there will never come a time where this happens.

Because The People are actually fine with it. Otherwise, they would make a fuss about it and blow the phones off the hook calling their representatives. You know, like they do concerning abortion.

How many MAGA hats go through airports thinking nothing of TSA = most if not all of the ones I’ve run into.

That's OK. If they think they want to play it that way, then we shall have a fully-transparent glass castle and all will live under the same surveillance, equally. When Bill Gates takes a dump, everyone around the world can log in to his bathroom-cam and watch, if that's what they're into -- no exceptions for Davos trillionaires, mafia thugs, royalty, academia, clergy, popes or anybody else.

No matter what the devil promised them, the future is not a happy place for the clown-"elites"!!
