It doesn't seem all that unrealistic to me. My dad, who has actually lived in a communist dictatorship for most of his life, and experienced this type of thing first-hand, constantly criticises me for all the dangerous stuff I post online. The fact is, if such a regime comes up unexpectedly, I'll be against the wall before I know it.
My plan to deal with this is to keep extremely aware of the political evolution where I live and to make sure that if it looks like such a regime is about to take power, I'm on the other side of the world with my family when that happens.
What's your plan?
- chrischen 15y agoIt's unrealistic in the developed world and there are actually reasons for preserving privacy besides something so extreme like the example you painted. Reasons besides simply for hiding what the gov't thinks is wrongdoing.
