#fnord — Public Fediverse posts

I don't think that I've ever read a spy novel but I'm somehow fascinated by the idea of people living in totalitarian regimes where everyone spies on everyone else. Applying that to the modern world, we've pretty much got a Panopticon, but it's an open prison. So many data brokers and possible state actors monitoring all forms of communication.

Anyway, this isn't a post about paranoia or conspiracy theories. It's more about people who spy on other people from a distance. I mean, it's supposed to instil fear, I suppose, but I like to think about things from the other perspective. Like, let's say that Fediverse is considered subversive and so needs to be spied on. So, naturally, resources need to be expended to scrape the network, collate the data, figure out network connections and generally get an idea about what the worldview of each of the actors are.

I kind of like to think these people will be surprised at how few of us want to use AI and are so often bitching about it, despite opting out of it as much as we can. Maybe that's how the revolution starts...
