The Orwellian Nightmare is closer than you think.

[RedCowboy]

We already know everything we say and do/purchase online is saved in our forever files and cellphones collect a lot of data other than voice/texts/pics but with these private companies wanting to fashion individual advertising as well as spy for big brother without a warrant and they do, private AI sifts through everything and flags people of " interest " to be further scrutinized.

How long will it be until every television, pc, laptop, coffee maker...... has essentially spy technology built in ? How long until we see legislation banning consumers from modifying their own devices due to intellectual property such as the way tuners and even farmers are banned from modifying engine control software ? Maybe new housing in addition to low flow water controls will be required to have smart energy control infrastructure that also spys and we are banned from tampering with even though we own it ?

Then later on for the good of the environment you may not get to make your living space a little cooler or warmer than what has been deemed reasonable, not if you live in one of the shipping container sized housing units stacked sky high for certain, but maybe not even in your own home, not without a variance and the greasing of palms to get it.

Snowden sounded the alarm but still we never really think it's a big deal, well let me tell you we are all being scrutinized by AI, our purchases and everything we say is easy for AI to comb through and you might thing it's a good thing and in some cases it likely is, but whenever there is power it corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, beware of social scores and controls to influence your behavior but never be afraid to speak your mind because if we are afraid to speak then we have already given up our freedom and our ability to take part in the shaping of our future, don't turn away your friends with a different political opinion out of fear of your associations lowering your social score and don't suppress others lest you be suppressed yourself, we should not be watched and graded by those who wish to control us and we should speak out against this all as one regardless of politics.

Wait are you telling me my smart devices didn't already spy on me? I thought it was a given when I purchased them...

It's curious how companies are trying to steal our right to repair our electromechanic equipments, with Philips's programmed obsolescence the long term products were dying in order to produce more sells in the name of i+D+I. This week on deutsche welle congresists pronounce for a more stricted regulations for laser's implementation, do AI machine learning based programs know about privacy rights? Tor browser will be more used as telegram is now.

 

[RedCowboy]

What's frightening is how many people don't think it matters that their privacy has been invaded, but when their social scores are impacted by the company they keep and their browsing activity they will become puppets modifying their lives as dictated by the AI thought police which will act to implement the agenda they are programmed to by the deep state who would otherwise never have the manpower to exert so much widespread influence, this is straight out of the Chinese population control playbook.

it's already here.............. has been for sometime now. Slow and steady wins the race, an they are winning.

Your last paragraph has got to the Loooongest run on sentence I've ever seen. Try using some periods every now and then.

Paul you make your own fair share of mistakes. Try not being a hypocrite for once.

Here in the UK we are facing having our private and confidential medical information being sold off. Worryingly, not many know, and even worse those that do don't seem to care.
I've opted my family out. Yet when I went to submit my Covid test result (Requirement of my job), you now have to agree to their new terms, privacy notice etc. So I was forced to agree to a NHS sub company (NHS Digital) terms just to submit a test. When I tried to decline the new terms, they faced a technical issue. How convenient. That move made me very angry

We have been transitioning into an Orwell like world for a long time. Covid has helped accelerate it in many instances.
If you want a device that is close to that of an Orwell vision. Just check out the Facebook Portal. That thing is telescreen that people are happily and ignorantly putting in theirs and their families homes.

That is the reason I have never used, subscribed to or ever logged onto Facebook. I also prefer my privacy and just giving it up to the world for some imagined fame seems ignorant to me.

You don't have to have boobbook, or any of it, work anywhere? use a cred/debit card? Have a loyalty card? unless you have worked illegally and never signed up for nothing, paid for everything in cash, never owned any vehicle ( in your name) or house, rented, etc. They already have everything on you anyway. You think it's bad, it's far worse than you can imagine. Check out the french X-files. Has nothing to do with aliens. I usually say nothing about any of this to anyone. The animals don't understand. You cannot change ones beliefs and views of the world with simply truth and information ( the masses). So I usually say nothing.,

 

[gazer101]

Might as well embrace it as there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it

Yes, if you have lived long anywhere you have a credit report, but that is far from the amount of information that is given up gladly to OPs that people tend to log onto daily without giving it a seconds thought. Sure I have at least 6 credit cards and own plenty of stuff that puts my credit history out there. But, I don't log onto platforms without a thought just because I think I may have a following. I never ever wanted a following.

Ever have any family in the military? Applied for anything government, IE. a license, assistance, grants, etc? Have a s.s. card? They know everything they need to know about you. Basically there is almost no way to get out of the system except become completely illegal. All by design, now you are a criminal, just because you want to be free. An they say the usa is free.....

 

[paul1598419]

I was talking about the names and photos of family members and other information like friends that government never sees that people give up to these platforms willingly. Sure, if you pay taxes, have a Social Security card and a credit report that information is out there and accessible to people who you maybe applying to for a place to live or to buy a car. That is to be expected when one asks for these types of things. But, that never includes friends and family members or your political leanings.

They link you in just proximity of phones by gps now. Even admit to using it. No longer do you need to willingly give it up, just own a cell phone. Don't have to be in your name, they can turn on the mic and figure it out eventually.

My cell phone has no GPS, so your argument doesn't hold merit. I use it only for phone calls and text messages.
