So the deal modern man was presented with was this: we'll give you instant global communication for pennies, but in return governments and corporations will closely monitor everyone on the planet: where they are, who they call, how long the call is, their texts, messages, and other communications -- basically their thoughts. We'll record this forever to use as we choose. Trust us.

As a global population, we seem to have made this deal, but I'm not aware of ever being consciously offered the choice. Can I change my mind now?
