Re: [Trisquel-users] Thoughts about the impact and future direction of proprietary software and technologies of surveillance and control.

Pessimism is not realism and realism is: people, most of them, don't care and  
the trend is certainly not going to stop or slow down, it will actually  
explode more. I agree with the point expressed in the book "The transparent  
society" - surveillance is here to stay. Whether the peasants will have any  
control and restriction over it is a matter of speculation, or not, if you  
count the current situation... We already have 0 control over it.
I really think the only thing you can do is teach others by example using the  
only real power you have left: rejection. Keep not buying and keep not using:  
there is very little action more powerful than that you can do **legally**.
