    Government has been captured. We were also warned about the military-industrial complex. Earlier we were plainly informed of the use of war as a racket. It's pretty clear, follow the money.

    Perhaps most people feel safer and enjoy the convenience that the "surveillance" brings. Friends and colleagues who express dissatisfaction towards surveillance technology are pleased at how YouTube and TikTok are able to suggest personalized videos for them to enjoy.
