I have two main thoughts around this.

1. Sousveillance [1] is one of the best hopes of not falling into
dystopia. Big Brother is scary only until the point that everyone starts

2. A brilliant quote from silklister Heather Madrone captures my
thoughts. From memory, "Save your dial-up modems. We can restart the
internet right under their feet."
