Roll on, Cashless Society.

Oh yes my friends, it’s coming along nicely.

Who needs money when you’ve got digits on a computer that can provide a perfect audit trace of you purchases anywhere and everywhere, all the time.

You Are Not a Free Person, You Are a Number, A Slave…

The barrage of invasive police state measures of surveillance have, of course, been ongoing with the pace of technology. Yet, in the UK the eyes and ears piecing together a total ‘electronic footprint’ has accelerated furiously– and with a frightening sense of inevitable entrapment.

BRITS NOW STAND COMPLETELY SURROUNDED…

The entire citizenry are now surrounded by nearly omnipresent surveillance by way of 4.2 million+ cameras in the streets of London, some of which now have microphones to eavesdrop on conversations and even speakers to shout back at individuals in an effort embarrass and correct behaviour. Not to mention a phasing in of face-scanning cameras and other monstrous technology. AND THAT IS ONLY THE BEGINNING…

For instance, surveillance also intends to utilize CCTV to detect violent behaviour and even spy on rubbish bins to report improper recycling and waste management!!

The steady stream of eroding privacy has been outdone now by a landslide of announcements– all at once– that are clearly meant to overwhelm any sense of individuality, freedom, self-respect, trust in society or sense of involvement in any part of government– beyond being a comprehensive profile in a paranoid database.

Of course, the UK has repeatedly told its citizens they will be ‘microchipped like dogs’ within a decade.

If the subjects of the digital crown have any nerve to buck the tyranny closing in around them, they had better reach their breaking point soon; if significant dissent doesn’t stop some surveillance and slow down even more, it may simply be too late to prevent an absolute surveillance society– backed by an army of computers and other sophisticated technology beyond control.
