I've been thinking about surveillance.

Nowadays, I really never feel like nobody's watching.

I have my phone next to me, and that's being tracked; My laptop connects to the internet, so that gets tracked too; There's cameras in lots of places, watching... It's a little unsettling.

Sometimes, I feel like a bit of a Luddite, but I don't think that's it. I just want tech to work how I want it to work; I want it to do the things I want it to do, and nothing I don't. I don't want it to watch my every move!

I wore my corduroy pants, today.
