Hello fellow serfs. You don't own your car, your phone, or your communications. Freedom and democracy are dead. I despise my country.

Freedom and democracy are only dead if you stop fighting for it. Keep voting. Keep protecting your privacy as best you can. Do everything you can to speak out against bullshit like this.

The only 'democracy' in the US is a democracy between corporate interests and property owners, in the model of Athenian democracy where only non-slaves had political influence.
