Wow.. I was wondering how long it would take for Philip K. Dick’s ‘Minority Report’ predictions to actually come into effect in real life – but hearing it from the US president today?
Mindboggling, isn’t it? What happened to the America I thought I knew? Is the Constitution still valid? These are questions I am afraid to answer.
The motion towards forming the origins of a future police state is unfortunately looming ever closer.
And yet, with the amount of internet surveillance and monitoring a daily reality, I’d say we’re halfway there already.
