Discussion Implications of all digital information becoming publicly released, leaked, exposed, etc?

[Prescott241]

What would be the implications of everyone's deeds, sins, laws broken, relationships, actions, digital history, search history, digital photos, videos, documents, online activity, the content they viewed, etc (basically everything there is to know about everyone) being released, made publicly viewable, scrutinized, and judged? Would humanity enter a period of societal transformation? Would we change who the elites were? Would there be a day of reckoning? Would all of mankind unknowingly be (figuratively) naked as Adam and Eve were in the garden of Eden? (I'm not trying to push a biblical agenda, just that I find this specific biblical story to be philosophically relevant to the conversation). I feel like as a society, we would be forced to make certain things less taboo, or otherwise risk imprisoning half or more of the population. I feel like the sins and deeds of those who hold power would force their resignation or even excommunication from society. I think a world where this reckoning upon mankind would force us to shift to the society depicted in the novel, "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley.

Those in power have already brought much of that world into effect, and are currently tying up the loose ends.

Do you not see that?

The only part of that I saw is corporations keeping information about you and selling it advertisers. While it's similar to what I'm describing, it is not the same thing. What I am talking about is ALL information available about EVERYBODY being publically available for ANYONE to read, view, and scrutinize. This is not the same thing as corporations knowing everything about you but not making it publically available and selling it to other corporations.

What you're talking about will never happen. There is a power balance in the world that would never allow it.
Instead, those in power trickle out what they think serves their purposes, delete that which doesn't, and use the stories and narratives to make you think what they want, the way they want.

When that doesn't work to their satisfaction, they turn to drugs,"therapies", "moral bioenhancement" and elimination.
They're working on the genetic predisposition to outcome described in "Brave New World"... "Alphas", "Betas" and so on. Have you ever tried looking at autism statistics, year over year for the last few decades? It takes time to do such things, but technology moves fast.

Look into CRISPR. Think about the implications of mRNA in "vaccines".

Your proposition is an intriguing one, but it can never happen. The reality of what is happening is much more intriguing. Note the dates on the last two pubmed links above. Do you remember what was happening around those dates?

Correct. We are headed towards a "Brave New World", and I cannot say for certain that it's for the better.

It's an interesting idea. At my Dad's firm, a secretary once let slip a document that revealed everyone's salaries... that caused a hell of a lot of friction.

I can only think the same thing would happen. Maybe there would be protests and revolution- maybe mass strikes (as we're seeing now- in the UK at least.) Or maybe those with wealth and power would simply just crack down harder to compensate- we're already seeing a desire at least to restrict protesting. Wonder if that's just the thin end of the wedge.

Whether you believe in the pandemic or not- it's quite amazing how quickly our freedoms can be restricted when 'needed'.

I've kinda stopped caring about it. If people see all the stuff I've done and leak it when I CTB, I will be fine with it. I have a boring life and I haven't done anything special, I think I might be too open of a person so maybe that's why it doesn't bother me anymore. It only used to bother me when people would threaten to leak things about me and I lived with my family, because they knew I'd be kicked out and abandoned by my family if that stuff ever got sent to them so felt like a hostage often. Feels freeing to now not care and to know that if anything to leaked now, it would not effect my life nor relations at all.
