“If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
Do you feel safe now? Ha ha ha... As long as big brother is watching... everything will be OK. No, not paranoid at all... just losing my mind that's all.
Hahaha
I guess true words in terms of how governmentstry to keep fear away from the public. But, they also practise the ‘one side of coin’ wrt the posibility of terorist attacks to allow all sort of laws to pass to give the government more and more of our personal data. Sure, one side is that indeed all this data can be used to lrevent some attack happening; But the next step could also be the government using the same data to hunt us for all those things we do daily and may or maynot be against some law.
