Modern day Fordlândia.
Slavery that what.
Wouldn’t call a CompanyTown™, a utopia…
It kind of is… going by the original definition of a utopia which is just the facade of a perfect civilization.
“I am Kenta Kon, and I’m here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? ’No!’ says the man in Washington, ‘It belongs to the poor.’ ’No!’ says the man in the Vatican, ‘It belongs to God.’ ’No!’ says the man in Beijing, ‘It belongs to everyone.’ I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose… Woven city, a city where the artist would not fear the censor, where the scientist would not be bound by petty morality, Where the great would not be constrained by the small! And with the sweat of your brow, Woven City can become your city as well.”
Currently replaying the original BioShock, i thought of Andrew Ryan as well after reading this post lol

The only way you protect the data from a future wannabe authoritarian dictator is for the data to not exist in the first place.
Ok, not interested.
Creepy reading
It’s not a data protection issue, it’s a data collection issue
