Is privacy doomed to end soon?

What if someone invented a miniature camera the size of a bug, or maybe smaller that could be controlled remotely and send picture over distances.

Something that would make it trully possible to infiltrate anyfucking where.
To record anyone in any situation if you so desired?

1) how close are we to such an invention?

2) what would be the consequences of this?

i mean, i think the consequences would be pretty good, nowadays we live in a world based off lies, and the problem is that some people believe those lies.

For example, all politicians everywhere are corrupt thieves. Anyone with a good education knows that. But the idiot inferiors dont, and because of them who keep believeing in objectively useless shit like supporting a party its that the world isnt completely perfect.

Imagine if you could record a politician everywhere, without him having the ability to prevent it. Either he becomes an honest politician (which would be something 100% new) or hes gonna get caught sooner or later being corrupt.


The same is true with sexual perversions and all shit, nowadays anyone that is an intellectual with real knowledge of social human psychology knows that most people like fucked up things, yet we act like thats not true like if that benefited anyone.
With this invention basically everyone in the world would be blackmailed for their fetishes, it would make more sense for everyone to just stop lying and tell the truth

so: no more corruption and no more sexual represion
it would be great

emp

I don’t recall taking “All politicians are inherently corrupt 101” and Freudian analysis in school. No ones going to sexually repress you fag, that treatment will be for the corrupt politicians.

youre acting like if you dont actively want to fuck and impregnate all of your female family members of areound your same age
but thats fine, were in the pre camera era.

so what, the white house would have to be emped constantly?

We'd discover most people are really boring.

...

>We'd discover most people are really boring.
sure, you dont expect to find like 10000% of all adult males masturbating to photos of preteeens?

What about that one sci-fi where they used mini black holes to form tunnels through both time and reality to spy on anything anywhere anywhen? There was one thing where it was proliferated so much that people would have a t-shirt with someone's face on it who was famous. It'd be like a live cam of then face or from past history like Julius Caesar. Anyway there was a huge upheaval in society then eventually everyone got used to it and things went back to something like normal. I can't remember the name of the book of the author. Can't seem to google it either.

oh yes that is exactly what im talking baout

>i mean, i think the consequences would be pretty good, nowadays we live in a world based off lies, and the problem is that some people believe those lies.

What makes you believe that your invention will make people change their mind about which politicians they support? The world is, and always will be, full of imbeciles with cognitive dissonance through the roof.

Facts don´t matter as much as you think; charisma and social dominance are the hallmarks of a great leader.

> With this invention basically everyone in the world would be blackmailed for their fetishes

What's gonna happen is everyone will start repressing their shit until they snap and go mass shooting.

>What makes you believe that your invention will make people change their mind about which politicians they support?
because you can find videos of every politician enacting rape fantasies in illegal brothels while they say " I HATE POOR PEOPLE I LITERALLY JUST STEAL THEIR MOENY"

or something tequivalent, such an obvious evidence of the real nature of someone would be unavoidable.

take any personw ith power you want, anyone and imagine if you could film them in 100% of all situations, even in the toilet, you would eventually find footage of them that would be so shocking as to make everyone stop supporting them

think about it

imagine bill clinton in a bar talking with a friend " oh yeah i just jizzed in the throat of this lady haha being president is the best, to tell you the truth i dont actually work very much, i hate campaign rallies cause theyre full of poor people and niggers"

¿

>or something tequivalent, such an obvious evidence of the real nature of someone would be unavoidable.
The "real nature" of men does not interest the average voter in the slightest.
>take any personw ith power you want, anyone and imagine if you could film them in 100% of all situations, even in the toilet, you would eventually find footage of them that would be so shocking as to make everyone stop supporting them
I don´t share your optimism.
>think about it
>presents completely absurd fantasies
Most politicians are not cartoon villains, and as such will never be caught uttering the outlandish remarks you present. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Fuck you op. Thank you for telling the truth. Andbyour thinking of a hot tub refrence.
Fuck the name of kieths book you eavsdropping dale on crystal. Enjoy coreys xbox achievment.
Yea timing on the laugh bullshit

The smaller the circuit is, the less effective emp becomes.

Political campaigns are just as much "your candidate sucks" as "my candidate is good". It changes nothing there.

And it's not going to somehow normalize sexual deviance, what's going to happen is some teenagers are going to put some fat nerd shoving a dildo up his ass on the internet and wait for him to kill himself.

>I dont recall taking all politicians are inherently corrupt

Come on kiddo, why would the school system teach you that? Yet it is patently obvious to anyone who has any understanding of the way government works.

>I HATE POOR PEOPLE
i don't know about that, but the current president of murica literally said that he likes to GRAB 'EM BY THE PUSSY with reference to women, and somehow the most conservative, backward trenches of society voted the most for him
I share your interest in exposing the hypocrisy of the human mind OP, but people are way less moved by external evidence than you think, I think

and i forgot to say this. what you've posted is basically a mass-enlightenment scenario. but to me, it sounds like you've realized certain things about your own nature that the vast majority of humans in this day and age (no matter how much evidence you present them) never will.
i don't have any real evidence, but i can say that over time, i have come to realize that the vast majority of other people irl really aren't really interested in expanding their minds or reaching truth. cognitive dissonance, as this user points out, is most people's reality.
i think most people are driven too much by deep fears and hidden motivations a la muh freud, and are in possession of too shallow an intelligence, to really see through their own ignorance.

for the record, i think it would be awesome if someone could implement your idea successfully.

airtight faraday cage rooms with positive pressure and airlocks,

You are a psychopath without morals.

Privacy is one of the most important human rights, we have already lost far too much. People who did what you are suggesting should be executed.

>Privacy is one of the most important human rights, we have already lost far too much.
"Human rights" never mattered in the first place. What little rights you have is determined by where you reside; Americans enjoys the most meaningful rights, while Chinese have little to no rights in relation to government.

This is the book:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Light_of_Other_Days

well then at least it would be hilarious if every kind of politician everywhere were forced to do that

no, privacy is a way to be a hypocrite, you dont want to rape preteens? then never get caught masturbating to preteens porn, yeah sure i dont care if its a fantasy, if you have such shitty thoughts i dont want them to be hidden. the same for everyone, absolute truth, real reality for all.

also, i dont think no one "did" as i suggested, it would be an invention that by merely existing it would change the game, it doesnt really matter who records it, after that if you just upload it anonymously to the internet its game over.
this is like the internet, something that comes in and changes everything, not one action done by one human

Lets get one thing straight here. We're talking about 2 things. Hiding secrets from the law, and hiding secrets from random people who want to judge you or hurt you. They're 2 different things but really 2 sides of the same coin. One is being judged by the law of the land, the other is being judged by random peoples personal oral or beliefs. Even if you're following the law 100% there are still reasons to keep secrets. Like if you won the lottery for instance, you might wanna keep your identity private to avoid solicitors or avoid getting robbed. Or if your there's a crazy religious people in your town and you wish to avoid joining their cult. Even on the legal law side of the coin, there's good reasons for privacy. Just because something is a law doesn't make it right and sometimes you need to break the law to do the right thing. Like freeing slaves for instance.

>We're talking about 2 things. Hiding secrets from the law, and hiding secrets from random people who want to judge you or hurt you.

thank you for better putting into words what i was trying to convey, which is the opposite of what you say, i do believe firmly that they should both be the same.

>Like if you won the lottery for instance, you might wanna keep your identity private to avoid solicitors or avoid getting robbed.
No, the problem is assymetry of information, in all of these cases. Everyone can know you won the lotery, but everyone can know who stole from you too

>Just because something is a law doesn't make it right and sometimes you need to break the law to do the right thing
no, if the law needs to be broken its because its a bad law.
once the law is correct there will be no need to break it, ever

We need none of those things.

Bug sized spy drones already exist and is used by black ops people the world over.

Spying isn't so bad until it goes full 1984 and directly interferes with our lives, trying to dictate how we should live.

On a similar note but opposite to what op is suggesting, how long till advanced ai makes it possible to fake any audio or video ever and we can no longer rely on anything and people will be able to do absolutely anything, confident that only direct witnesses will be reliable.


that would be a fun argument for a sci fi novel

have these micro sized bugs invented and make a society in which everyone is constantly self concious of everything, even when they have sex, when they take a shit, every fucking moment they must be aware of what they do.

but then have the technology to replicate perfectly any kind of media and suddenly everyone rapes and murder to their hearts content because they know there is noe vidence possible.

plot twist, if you add on top of that the possiblity to implant memories and create perfect replicas of human bodies then reality might as well get totally irrelevant.

then again if everyone can live in a perfect simulation of happyines in a virtual world there wouldnt be much crime .

it would be fun to write a novel in which these life altering technologies get introduced and each ones creates an era of distinct behaviours bizarrely different from what we know

Keked

A Sufficiently high voltage and frequency tesla coil is basically a permanent emp.
Yes, but they also have less capacitance to resist voltage spikes and most(basically 100%) of the devices would be ultra sensitive electronics.

But then some motherfucker would invent some circuits that could handle a predictable, periodic one directional field. Cause there's no physical reason why you couldn't do that. Granted we have basically 0 experience in something like this , cause we never needed to operate ultrasensitive electronics in the middle of a lightning bolt or a neutron star. And I'm sure it'd be an absolute pain in the ass developing something like this. And I'm not sure if you could truly miniaturize it, but maybe somebody could make something like this.

OK, so now every politician in the world is using airtight faraday cage rooms with positive pressure and airlocks, and hyper powerful, megawatt, randomized direction and frequency constant emp-s powerfully enough to melt any metal pen somebody might bring inside by accident.
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER cause some motherfucker Genetically engineers a small cluster of cells, so that they sense sound and record it in dna (which has extremely high storage capacity) and maybe uses some sort of protein computer to manage it.
engadget.com/2016/02/26/scientists-built-a-book-sized-protein-powered-biocomputer/
And now anyone can waft in a billion of these tiny recorders to anywhere they want.
Ok so now they could counter these by...
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER cause some other motherfucker will perfect optical computation using light reflected by nano mirrors, and funneled in tiny optical cables.

BUT
ALL THAT
(probably)
DOESN'T MATTER
because there are only a few possible general categories outcomes after this

1-If the mass-enlightenment scenario that OP imagines happens, then probably anyone doing this would be VERY suspicious and there would be a lot of extra attention paid to them.
So the only possible way anyone could conduct any kind of would be to arrange it before the whole ubiquitous surveillance thing started.
But people still could do suicide attacks.
And there'd also be a problem of controlling and observing all these bots. We could have all of them flying around in a distributed public network trying to automatically cover everybody. Or just have a few following everybody at all times.
So to truly remove all crime from the world, on the everyday persons level you'd still need either super advanced AI (wich also brings in a whole slew of complications) or you'd need to have a huge number of people doing nothing just monitoring other people.

If the technology required to do what OP says develops slowly and mostly publicly then it'll probably be this scenarion (or maybe #3)
But if it gets developed mostly in secret. Maybe because somebody saw where it was going and made the project top secret or maybe because somebody at DARPA suddenyl invents the 1 thing required for it, whatever.
Then the organisation that holds this technology would be stupid to publicly release it. They'd keep it for themselves and use it. If anyone else had this tech it'd be useless to compete, they'd instantly know each others plans and everything. So if multiple parties emerged with this tech in about the same time frame they most likely merge into a singleton or instantly destroy the weaker side. And the same would happen if anyone discovered the tech afterwards.
and so they might :

2- quietly become the illuminaty world masters or some shit. Basically if the tech could be kept secret anyone would use it to quietly become the dominant world power in secret and basically become the illuminaty.

Or if the tech got out or it was such an obvious technology that too many experts could realize it, but not too simple so that they could still control the production of it, they might become openly aggressive and grab power. Basically 1984, just on steroids with no place to hide and with constant AI assisted video surveillance.
You wouldn't be able to fight back or construct your own since you'd always be watched, but even if you could. You'd be noticed and you'd be dispatched. Cause even if a psychopathic riot squad knows how psychopathic their boss is, they wouldn't care as long as he pays them.

Probably it'd be impractical because of power requirement and stuff. But that could be solved by beamed microwaves as they did in A Deepness in the Sky, that book explores this topic a little bit but sadly not as much as i'd like. But it'd still recommend it.

Oh and btw we ARE making some progress in this field

woah, gold tier

Underrated

Y’all idiots should look at your smartphones and realize it’s already happening.

>For example, all politicians everywhere are corrupt thieves. Anyone with a good education knows that. But the idiot inferiors dont, and because of them who keep believeing in objectively useless shit like supporting a party its that the world isnt completely perfect.
Lolno. WikiLeaks had all the info about Hillary Clinton's shady activities dumped out for free, everyone could read it and it was even discussed on the news. Assange himself clarified how shocked he was and what a war-mongering cunt she was, how she must be detained, etc. It's all fucking there, Libya, Syria, Arab spring, money, etc. Yet Americans voted for her. Not only that, 53% of the population voted for her, she nearly won. Think about it, you've got all the shady e-mails in the open, you've got info about her, you've been proven of how much of a piece of shit she is, yet people still vote for her, they cry about her defeat, they protest. The people are literally retarded, brainless cunts. The only solution is to wipe out everyone sub-110 IQ.
