Our Culture

We live in a surveillance culture

Everyone who has social media-easily traceable and easily identifiable. E.g. Face recognition/ auto-tagging.

Foucault, (French philosopher) stated:

“The Panopticon is an ideal architectural figure of modern disciplinary power. The Panopticon creates a consciousness of permanent visibility as a form of power, where no bars, chains, and heavy locks are necessary for domination any more.”
