>And when everyone started carrying cellphones.
in 1984 George Orwell talks about TeleScreens,
Here's a little excerpt from wikipedia:
>"Telescreens are fictional devices which operate as both televisions and security cameras....telescreens are used by the ruling Party in Oceania to keep its subjects under constant surveillance, thus eliminating the chance of secret conspiracies against Oceania. All members of the Inner Party (upper-class) and Outer Party (middle-class) have telescreens in their homes, but the proles (lower-class) are not typically monitored as they are unimportant to the Party."
now consider recent NSA revelations (dragnet surveillance) including: http://www.wired.com/2014/07/nsa-targets-users-of-privacy-services/ http://www.wired.com/2014/07/nsa-targets-users-of-privacy-se...
Cellphones are Telescreens... they are a source of entertainment for most (like TV) and function as security cameras -- with your location and data connectivity being constantly logged, complete with backdoors which allow full remote access.
The middle class is being destroyed (http://time.com/money/2917709/wealth-inequality-doubled-over-last-10-years-study-finds/ http://time.com/money/2917709/wealth-inequality-doubled-over...) and anyone who opposes the party will be subject to indefinite detention (NDAA) or wiped out.
Apps are primarily a distraction mechanism and social networks are services which profile every aspect of an individuals life, data which can and will be mined and used against you if you commit a thought-crime.

Then why are you and countless other people like you allowed to post your alarmist b.s all over every day? Try moving to north korea and posting against the government, if you want to know what being in a totalitarian state is really like.
