We're pretty much there. Walk around any medium to big city in this country and you're under video surveillance. Look around at most intersections and you'll see cameras too.As for your internet viewing history, emails, cell phone conversations, online purchases, it's all permanently recorded and stored. IMO we're way beyond anything that Orwell could have even imagined.
So far this system is only being by the police for solving crimes; yet its mere presence is a threat to liberty. It's ability to be delivered on a sliver platter to any tyrant who gains power in this country should be of concern to us all. Yet it's not.
I agree.
If you really want to view a brain teaser of a concept, I urge you to view “Anon” on Netflix.
It really does take the human tech experience about as far as it can go as long as we’re still functioning in a reality setting, but with super enhanced information age gone off the charts.
I believe it’s a Netflix in-house production. It may or may not take folks more than one viewing to fully grasp what’s going on fully.
There were scenes I backed up and watched again to make sure I was taking it all in.
I’m not pushing this for production value, although it’s very acceptable on that level. I’m just pushing it to expose the concept that is presented in the movie.
