It's only a matter of time until we get telescreens. In fact, phones are almost there, picking up personal information and preferences from your apps and such. It's already a two-way street.
Aaah, Glenn, don't start me on the damage those phones have caused - to minds, culture, communication, kindness, and on and on...
What really scares me is all the junk Muskrat is allowed to send up in space, much of it "communication"-related. Is he stealthily being allowed to have his finger on the button of the global Internet?
Parenthetically, therre was a train problem in NYC yesterday because some switching? station on Long Island had old software which didn't match with newer stuff in Manhattan. Many people were stuck. How much of this will be allowed?
DOGE and Dear Leader donтАЩt care a fig for legitimacy. TheyтАЩve done what they want. We hear good news about their failures, but a lot of MAGAтАЩs successes are not publicized or even fully understood.
If turnabout is fair play, disappear The Donald -maybe Peru, adopted home of the new Pope.
Double plus good, yup. Even Orwell could not have predicted all this. Of course, there was no social media to factor in...
Only the giant television screens one could not turn off in your rooms.

Judith,
I havenтАЩt been able to escape your comment above. Plus I was looking at CaravaggioтАЩs scary тАЬJudith and HolofernesтАЭ.
Returning to ti can phoned next month.

Glenn,
I wish more people knew how vulnerable they are. It's all presented as more convenience and saving time -- for what?????
I know the story of Judith and Holofernes - she seduced him and then cut off his head, no? But I don't understand your last sentence.?
Judith
I meant to say that, to avoid ongoing hacking by, well, everyone, IтАЩll go back to tin can phones.

Alas, Doge and Dear Leader ARE the new legitimacy. They said so.
