Beskrivelse

Imagine a world where political prisons no longer exist. Abusive regimes no longer need frozen gulags. Re-education through labor is a far-off memory. But tyranny isn’t gone. It’s pervasive. Everywhere. Mass surveillance keeps tabs, from roadside cameras, to online trackers, to the phone in your pocket. You hesitate saying what you think, even if it’s true. You weigh your actions based on social trends. What you risk by stepping out of line is that the system itself – society as we know it – will just lock you out. You can’t work because you can’t get paid. You can’t rent a home because you can’t digitize the payments. You can’t buy food because cash isn’t accepted, and you have no bank account. You might say you don’t believe in sci-fi dystopias like this. But you better start believing. Because this reality is already here.
