Recipe from the Totalitarian Cookbook:

1) Create a bogeyman (suggestions: Terrorists, Child Molesters, Communists)
2) Offer a solution
3) Stir, exploit, extract money, and cook to a boil

Because in a day and age where almost everybody has a phone to contact them on via text message or phone call 24/7 and social networking sites where everybody and their mother has a picture and biography, complete with a status of what they did today, we just had too much privacy. Good thing these guys came along and fixed all that.

Yes.
When I was a child, "God" was the one who was constantly seeing you, so you wouldn't do anything bad. Well, then there was always Santa Claus, too. Both knew if you were naughty or nice.

Of course, a child will be on his/her best behavior when he/she knows a parent is watching! How does constant monitoring teach a child to have best behavior even when not watched?

I had a family member who always accompanied his wife everywhere, standing outside the home bathroom door even. This constant need to monitor is disturbing on a personal as well as a societal level.

Baiscally, there is a lack of trust. And that is when society breaks down.

And why DO people need to have so much contact anyway? Just because we have instant communication doesn't mean we need to use it constantly.
