Isn't it funny how most governments become less brutal as the technology and knowledge to influence and manipulate people becomes available to said governments.

Isn't it funny how most governments become less brutal as the technology and knowledge to influence and manipulate people becomes available to said governments. Not to sound too bleak, the flipside to this is that technology also enables people to coordinate and inform eachother of the actions of governments.
