What no class analysis does to a MFer.
The National Security Hawks in the US are in on the surveillance, feeding the data to AI, and churning out lists of targets to eventually drone strike - domestically and abroad.
Can someone connect me with these National Security Hawks that are for actual privacy and autonomy, instead of their own stupid surveillance states? Because I'm convinced Doctorow is making them up in hopes of inciting their existence.
His pitch of "stealing American Trillions to keep Billions" is enticing and elegant, but flies in the face of All of the political Momentum. I wish to flee to his first country to destroy American Copyright in favor of their own national sovereignty! But not even France is taking this step.
