So I was browsing audiobooks to download when I came accross the title you see in the screenshot. The title reads:
Exposed: How Revealing Your Data and Eliminating Privacy Increases Trust and Liberates Humanity - Ben Malisow
Stopped me mid scroll and had to read the description to see if I understood the title correctly. Sure as shit it really is a book defending the trend of diminishing privacy and justifies the mining of your data.
Against my better judgment I downloaded the tor file and plan on listening to it today. Ill try and edit this post at the end of the day with what the book was like or if I couldn't finish it cuz of how ridiculous it is.
To save the click to read the description from the screenshot:
Discover why privacy is a counterproductive, if not obsolete, concept in this startling new book
It’s only a matter of time - the modern notion of privacy is quickly evaporating because of technological advancement and social engagement. Whether we like it or not, all our actions and communications are going to be revealed for everyone to see. ‘Exposed: How Revealing Your Data and Eliminating Privacy Increases Trust and Liberates Humanity’ takes a controversial and insightful look at the concept of privacy and persuasively argues that preparing for a post-private future is better than exacerbating the painful transition by attempting to delay the inevitable.
Security expert and author Ben Malisow systematically dismantles common notions of privacy and explains how most arguments in favor of increased privacy are wrong; privacy in our personal lives leaves us more susceptible to being bullied or blackmailed; governmental and military privacy leads to an imbalance of power between citizen and state; and military supremacy based on privacy is an obsolete concept.
Perfect for anyone interested in the currently raging debates about governmental, institutional, corporate, and personal privacy, and the proper balance between the public and the private, Exposed also belongs on the shelves of security practitioners and policymakers everywhere.
For any argument of this nature, you can usually counter it with "ok, you first", like when policymakers talk about drug testing welfare recipients or the like. Let's see people like Trump or Musk livestream themselves 24/7 before pushing this on people with less social power.
At any rate, to answer the question, all of the Sovereign Citizen stuff posted over in [email protected] has been super fascinating. Somehow, the government is all-powerful and hostile, but also if you say a few magic incantations they'll throw up their hands let you do whatever you want.
