Big Brother Is Shaping You

"Why would the government bother to waste all the effort just to keep an eye on an innocent nobody like me?" wondered a majority of civilians when PRISM was disclosed in 2013. Indeed, the government may have no interest and no effort in surveilling on everyone relying simply on manpower. But how about an AI on duty?

What you can see is what AI allows you to see.

Firstly, before the platform hands in your privacy to NSA, what can it do with your privacy?

Personalized customization.

On Steam, you can see Big Brother Is Shaping You on the front page where others cannot due to the fact that AI of Steam speculates that you might like this game based on your usage records.

On the news website, your home page is covered with news feed related to offline games, while others are not.

On the shopping website, you receive an advertisement for video game consoles on your home page, while others receive sneakers’ ads.

Nowadays, you can hardly find a place without personalized customization. Everyone sees the world differently than what was in the past.

Therefore, when everything you see is decided by AI, do you think it will customize the page for you based on your needs, or will it be the case that what you see is determined by its requirements?

Will the news platforms intentionally hide disadvantageous comments against it from you?

When you are searching for a product on a shopping platform, which item does AI wants you to buy and consequently, in what order will the product be arranged to maximize the possibility of the purchase?

Do you search?

Does the search engine really list all the qualified results?

In what order does it rank?

Doesn't it secretly hide something after 100 pages?

Does intelligent interception only intercept advertisements?

Does intelligent filtering of false Information only filter false Information?

...

So when data from all platforms are collected and sent to NSA, what can they do with AI?

Big Brother Is Shaping You would discuss all these circumstances: how your data are collected, how they are analyzed, and how they in turn affect you in the end.

The game takes 30 minutes to 1 hour now, and could be more in the future if you like it.
