My signals for suspecting this Or something like it being a near future outcome are a result of not connected observations.
1) the amount of sharing we already do. 20 years ago my family / social interactions would find it nearly impossible to even bother entertaining the current status of privacy. The idea you basically HAVE to have a cell phone and email to get any decent paying job, traffic cameras everywhere, and now corporations pushing their black box ML and hardware into municipalities / vetting with police support
2) volunteering approx EVERY biometric a person has to skip a line at airport screening (Clear, the company facilitating this)
3) political adversity to privacy and encryption
4) hacker news. Where I hope and aspire to participate in the best most curious and supportive manner. I held the conversations here in high regard and told outsiders of how productive and intelligent the conversations are (they are). Yet I frequently find many downvotes when I comment in opposition to Facebook, slightly less common re google etc.
5) in takeaway I have observed cultural changes, market, political and security practices changing... all in a direction of - whatever this possible, seems not good, and seems highly unlikely but valuable to entities in power - might actually happen.
Thanks!
