I find it a bit hypocritical to associate the unauthorised tracking of visitors, usually for advertising purposes, with the themes of the Fahrenheit 451 book, which are are censorship, conformity vs individualism, the destructive role of technology, and the loss of critical thinking.
- plagiarist 3y agoOn the contrary, I think it's very true to the spirit of lost critical thinking. Every single consumer protection has people show up on the side of the giant corporations. Usually a libertarian type with no clue how furious they would be if they got what they were asking for.
