Just some food for thought, Facebook sells its services to the intelligence community. If there were anything that resembled something like a global authoritarian surveillance network, it would be Facebook. The genius part of it is that people maintain their own personal dossiers on themselves. Who would have ever, in their wildest dreams, been able to think of a future where an authoritarian regime has gotten its citizens to keep their own files on themselves. It's bonkers. There used to be an assumption that a national, let alone global surveillance state would have been impossible due to the sheer workload of maintaining dossiers on everyone, who would have thought that is totally irrelevant because people are more than willing to self report.
