🌑 Big Brother in a Business Suit
Picture a city where every camera bears a corporate logo. Every step tracked, every face scanned, every movement sold as "security data". Surveillance firms don’t sell tech—they sell the right to decide who’s innocent and who’s a threat.
These companies build invisible walls: starting as "security partners", ending as guardians of a system where freedom is a paid add-on. More data they hoard, more indispensable they become to states, which then craft laws in their favor. It’s a vicious cycle: monopoly feeds on fear, fear justifies monopoly.
But there’s a crack in the system: citizens rejecting biometric IDs, activists encrypting everything, lawyers challenging opaque contracts. Resistance is a human firewall.
