> we need to ask ourselves whether the future society we want to live in is one which constantly watches its citizens – or, more likely, one in which citizens are never totally sure when, how and by whom they’re being watched. First, digital behavior is already being 24/7 surveiled. Authorities and corporations only need to extend this to when there is no digital device available with the subject. But the real danger is that if nobody knows for sure when, how and by whom, then everyone will be forced to assume that it's every time, by every means and by everyone. And in top of that there is the problem of never being able to truly be forgotten (soft delete). So you lose the motivation to commit mistakes, engage in theoric or philosophical conversations, criticise ahd inovate unless you're going the same direction of status quo. Which only accelerates the process.
