I think we have finally reached the end stage of the empire

    I'm just idly thinking: But I am wondering how functional security monitoring of the state actually is. Sure there is advanced tech and all, but with hundreds of millions of people- that's a lot to keep track of. Even with advanced tech, like you said, that's a lot of data.

    In addition, the state has been doing a good job of hollowing itself out to private firms. How well are these firms communicating with one another? Can the people running these firms be trusted to follow through on their investigations? How many of these contracts are favors to the friends of politicians?
