The high-tech security shit is just another grift. All these cameras and surveillance everywhere but the rate at which crimes are solved or results in arrest prosecution is the same as always. It’s never been easier to shoplift since these AI systems took over stop-loss. Look at this war with Iran. The military has been been hallowed out. Not saying there’s nothing to worry about, it’s just that it won’t be like the movies where tech has made the authorities unstoppable.

They’re going to rely on people’s apathy and willingness to be cattle as long as they have slop content and slop nutrition paste. That sadly will probably be enough for a long time at least.
