This is true but you have to admit over time the means of oppression have become more nuanced and complicated.
Few people realize that most companies are little more than intellectual property, a network to collaborate on expand said IP and the corp's ability to secure information.
Large corps and govt's not only understand this, they are defined by it, thus the need for whistle blowers more now than ever as the foot on your throat is not as apparent.
- fit2rule 13y agoEducation always will be, and currently is, the tip of the spear. If you can deem to educate someone, you can deem to educate another. Once you gain a mass, education becomes lesser than the whole. This is why: we humans constantly need new means by which we can enlighten ourselves. Within a generation, todays enlightenment becomes de rigeur, de jour, de jure. This is the nature of the trap we find ourselves; escaping it requires one abandon the dialectic of our masters, and embrace the constant new. For as long as we have hackers, we are safe.
