MODERATORS
That's a gross over simplification that ignores the influence of the insurance industry shifting the baseline of public surveillance and crony capitalism that infects our municipalities.
Capitalists have been trying to build the panopticon since the first factories.
Yes, that's how it's implemented under capitalism.
States further into their authoritarianism don't need to bother with middle men and cutouts and shit.
They just put up the cameras.
