+ Our devices and services gather most of the data that the NSA
+ mines for its surveillance project. We pay for these devices and
+ the services they connect to, and then we painstakingly perform
+ the data-entry tasks associated with logging facts about our
+ lives, opinions, and preferences.

+ Thanks to Big Tech, Surveillance capitalism is everywhere. This
+ is not because it is really good at manipulating our behaviour,
+ or the rogue abuse of corporate power. It is the result of
+ unchecked monopolism and the abusive behavior it abets. It is
+ the system working as intended and expected. Cory Doctorow has
+ written an extended critique of Shoshana Zuboff's The Age of
+ Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for a Human Future at the New
+ Frontier of Power, with a non-magical analysis of the problem
+ leading to a different proposal for a solution.
