Why You Should Embrace Surveillance, Not Fight It

Raise your hand if you think we should embrace surveillance instead of fighting it. Anyone?
We’re expanding the data sphere to sci-fi levels and there’s no stopping it. Too many of the benefits we covet derive from it. So our central choice now is whether this surveillance is a secret, one-way panopticon — or a mutual, transparent kind of "coveillance" that involves watching the watchers. The first option is hell, the second redeemable.
