Even if you're boring, you're still being tracked.

    You're being tracked but nobody is paying attention.

    Some people searched "boobs" on Google.

    Some people watched Heartstopper on Netflix.

    Some people searched for methods of aborting a baby by yourself.

    Some people downloaded a Bible application.

    Some people follow trans TikTokers.

    Some people watched and liked YouTube videos that questioned the existence of a god.

    Some men watched gay porn.

    Some people regularly messaged a drug dealer.

    Every datum is permanent, but every law isn't.

    Big Brother isn't watching you

    So you don't understand how mass surveillance works? "Big brother" isn't "watching" you in real time, they're collecting and storing all the data they can en masse and having AI look at it for them. I personally object to the warrantless collection and storage of everyone's data.

    And then what? Why do I care?

    AI wrongly flags you as suspicious and someone has to take a manual look at all your data.

    Why would you want anyone from the government doing any sort of investigation on you? Even if you have nothing to hide it's a breach of privacy and you put a lot of trust in the government.

    They aren’t watching, but they are recording so they can watch later at their leisure and skip the commercials.

    How does big brother know about my porn preferences if big brother isn't watching me masturbate? Checkmate.

    Sounds like a contradiction.

    Big Brother was watching you, but isn't watching anymore.

    Because he doesn't even want to know, he wants to forget. He knows if he goes back to look now he's not going to like it, and he can't do anything about it.

    This misrepresents how mass surveillance works.

    It's high-throughput big-data processing. It's not a lad sitting in a room watching you specifically.

    That's half true, no one cares about you in particular but they still collect everything to have a database of all thing that could possibly care about in the future, Snowden did a great job revealing that and while it wasn't state driven you can take a look at the Cainbridge Analytica story if you want to know what's possible even if no one ever cares about you specifically, keep in mind that that's even possible with very outdated technology by todays standards!

    Big brother isn't watching you because you're not a party member, merely a lowly prole. Deal with it!
