sometimes you're working for the panopticon and forget about the panopticon
footage is making the rounds on Facebook of a canvasser wearing a Stronger Maine shirt (a super PAC that supports Susan Collins) stealing a package yesterday

Isn't it a bad idea to build an all-knowing Panopticon?

Great question. Here at Panopticon, Inc., we don't think so.

On strikes, boycotts, and rethinking leverage when the government WANTS the economy to collapse:

I feel terrible for contemporary undergrads. Older people built them a jobless panopticon and told them to be Successful.

We live in a vibes-based panopticon like wtf

like, ceaseless, endless "more panopticon! less kids! more panopticon! less kids!" bsky.app/profile/jame...
From one of the many PR emails I'm getting about the government social media ban. Obviously this is from someone selling this technology.

But stop to think about just how utterly dystopian this is: *constant* video surveillance of all online activity, for everyone.

you were pokemon going to panopticon dystopia, whether you realized it or not
“For the last few years, Niantic Spatial has been taking the data collected from players of Pokémon Go and Ingress (Niantic’s previous phone-based AR game, launched in 2013) and building a visual positioning system, technology that tells you where you are based on what you can see.”
How Pokémon Go is giving delivery robots an inch-perfect view of the world
Niantic's AI spinout is training a new world model using 30 billion images of urban landmarks crowdsourced from players.

Maybe the panopticon is a bad idea.

I guess it’s good to know that inside the panopticon tower, it’s also hell.
Ahhhh... he posted it again with Lindsey Halligan's full name, so maybe it wasn't a DM? Who the hell knows. But this is a weird freaking thing to post publicly.

“Cringe culture” is a social panopticon that has totally killed experimenting and failure in your formative years
my guess is that it’s bc a) the journey of discovery necessitates making mistakes, and b) people are afraid to make mistakes.

not sure about the why for b) but another guess is the permanence of content on social media mixed with a lot of care for what others think.

KitKat: take a break … from the panopticon
“KitKat and Ogilvy are positioning this invention as an IRL manifestation of KitKat’s iconic ‘Take a Break’ slogan.”
KitKat’s newest product is . . . a Faraday cage?
KitKat's new wrapper is a pouch designed to block signals to your phone.

Maybe giving random cops control over the panopticon is a bad idea.

FOUCAULT: I wrote "Panopticism" to show how people are enculturated to think of themselves as subjects and agents of surveillance
CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY: at last we have invented the Panopticon from Foucault's famous essay "Panopticism"!
FOUCAULT: Jeremy Bentham invented the panopticon in the 1790s
