    The first deus ex game. When the company tells him they only monitor people for safety of their products and then a leaked memo says otherwise and how they trick people into taking showers to do full body scans on them. And the “health and safety” measurements aren’t even being taken other than to manipulate.

    It’s just like that. But real life.

      Deus Ex really was prescient of a lot of things. autonomous kill bots, using disasters as a cover for fucked up shit, corporatism and influence peddling, private militaries, even people becoming obsessed with AI as a weapon/salvation/god.

      … alright, time to reinstall

    They’ve done a great job finding unobtrusive locations for those new Flock cameras. No longer need facial recognition. I saw that the “Bidet” product line is being launched next week.
