Why are there so many people who just can't accept the fact that a surveillance society is an inherently good society?
Jaxon Torres
What are they overlooking?
Brody Howard
Checked.
>This thread is irony in its purest from.
That's why /ATG/ needs you to explain how, bonganon.
Logan Johnson
NOO YOU LIVE IN A SOCIETY AND SHOULDNT WANT TO CHANGE IT?
NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Everyone because anyone can be a bad person so we must look over every person and keep tabs on them. We can't let 9/11 happen again.
Jaxon Morgan
Why are there so many people willing to accept being surveilled? One thing is being surveilled by God, as several religions describe, another very different thing is being surveilled by the machine itself, thru its lowly human proxies.
TL;DR: why do so many people readily aqcuiese to a minority caste who wields the sharp end of tech-civ at them and their children?

There are a couple easy ways to reduce the botnet in your own life. Foremost is to get rid of your govcorps surveillance pod, aka "smart" phone. Another easy thing to do is to stop using Windows and OS X, install Linux or BSD. And another really easy way to help reduce botnet penetration into your life is to browse the web with Tor Browser, which of course doesn't stop lawful government surveillance but it DOES stop corporate tracking.
Just these three things will choke off most of the data flow to govmilcorp.
>Foremost is to get rid of your govcorps surveillance pod, aka "smart" phone.
Enjoy cutting your mandatory 'Freedom-Patirot-Climate change-chip' out of your hand, user.
> Another easy thing to do is to stop using Windows and OS X, install Linux or BSD.
How would this help the situation exactly....? NOT being sarcastic here, by the way.
>And another really easy way to help reduce botnet penetration into your life is to browse the web with Tor Browser, which of course doesn't stop lawful government surveillance but it DOES stop corporate tracking.
Does it help eliminate the risk to their lives of anons living under the shadow of nuclear disaster....? Does it make anons immune against the poison they breathe in urban settings...? This IS sarcasm, by the way....
Im not your bruh. Im human being from Bohemia while you are argentinian nigger.

It's not called OS X anymore, it's macOS, and it doesn't phone home the way Windows does. Windows is spyware, macOS is not. It is not as trustworthy as something open source but it is worlds more private than Windows.
Hunter Foster
Based OP evolving according to the case. Have a bump.
>it doesn't phone home the way Windows does Yes it does, it's become more and more invasive with each release since 10.5.
If you have Little Snitch you can see that it phones home continuously.
>Enjoy cutting your mandatory 'Freedom-Patirot-Climate change-chip' out of your hand, user. Trump already said that's not happening. You'll be getting one though, even if you're Jewish they will still give you that implant.
Enjoy that implant user.
Dylan Wood
change your flag again, fag.

>NOOOO ACCORDING TO MY SCHOOL BACKYARD LOGIC LUDDITES CANNOT USE INTERNET Tech can be used the right way in balance with nature. Try to prove me wrong.
change to what huh? you dont have to be mad at the NAZBOL gang homie
Jack Reed
>Bye faggot
....Thought you had aready said 'bye', bruh.... Yet you're still here, bruh...? Why are you even communicating with niggers, Bohemian bruh...? Why are you a race traitor, bruh...?
>Trump already said that's not happening
Sauce?
>even if you're Jewish they will still give you that implant.
It will be a real treat to watch them try to squirm their way out of that. If true, of course....
>while you are argentinian nigger. Uncalled for. Imagine being this triggered about a luddite thread. Are you the Tarrant whiteknight by any chance? Literal jew...
this >claim to be anti technology >uses a computer and the internet
what are these hypocrite retards trying to accomplish anyway?
Lucas Morgan
>Based OP evolving according to the case. Have a bump.
Wrong mate, unfortunately.... Thanks for the bump though, much appreciated.
These threads were MUCH better when they were /TKG/.... Many more posters, and MUCH higher quality posts. It was a rare thing indeed to see anons in those /TKG/ threads have actual well-thought-out discussion in this fucking cesspool known as Yas Forums.
Blake Cook
I was being optimistic and thought you will actually think, just this one time, and leave.
Chase Moore
I dont know your flag but you do sound very black.
Jacob Ross
This is just retard logic. I can have a smartphone and use it without succumbing to the degradation. This "all or nothing" and playing with extremes bullshit is just retarded.
the retard logic is to say technology is shit, how much you hate it and then still using it. that makes you a retard and shows to others you dont believe in the things you actually preach. preaching water but drinking wine yourself.
Mason Butler
It's because you didn't listen.
John Robinson
No, you are retarded and so is op. This should be called anti degradation and not anti tech. Anti tech is degradation itself. Cope.
Isaiah Sanchez
>I was being optimistic and thought you will actually think, just this one time, and leave.
Not sure what you mean, bruh. Why are you even still here anyways, lol...?
>rememberyourehereforeverbruh.jpg
Patience. You will get what you wish for in due time.
173. If the machines are permitted to make all their own decisions we can’t make any conjecture as to the results, because it is impossible to guess how such machines might behave. We only point out that the fate of the human race would be at the mercy of the machines. It might be argued that the human race would never be foolish enough to hand over all power to the machines. But we are suggesting neither that the human race would voluntarily turn power over to the machines nor that the machines would willfully seize power. What we do suggest is that the human race might easily permit itself to drift into a position of such dependence on the machines that it would have no practical choice but to accept all of the machines’ decisions. As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and as machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more and more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won’t be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide.
