be so mean as chicago increasingly resembles the chilling and tell you to be i described a george orwell's legendary novel nineteen eighty-four where every word action. and even thought it was monitored by big brother. and. the only thing that's missing. advise us on how to live our lives while the structure of surveillance grows so do the fears of americans it creeps me out i don't like it when you fully appreciate the scale of what is being put in place in chicago and then imagine a. more repressive city government or more repressive regime it could be incredibly interesting christian was an artist arrested for selling one dollar prints on the streets he filmed his arrest and as a result class won for the role of camp the murder and that's fifteen years that's up to fifteen years in the state prison this is totally crazy as officials cower to report people's movements expands the power of the people to do the same is being squashed when they hook all these things up and are able to follow people all around the city and at the same calendar telling us that we can't even gather the informa
