But a small caveat. To create the camera image they needed 3 wi-fis near each-other. That is highly unlikely for anybody to have in house. Well in a more crammed space like an apartment complex it would be more likely to work. So, the poorer the more surveilled.
Thank you for the clarification. They did use 3 for the experiment, but are a bit ambiguous as to if 3 are necessary to reproduce a similar result. But I agree, I think we should assume it is for now.
Well, the CEO of a very large publishing outfit in South Africa, in the late 1990s, when I explained to him the nature of converting a print publication to its digital, online format, he said, "it's a license to print money!" Elsewhere the term, 'freezing and refreezing a product' has been used to explain the nature of digital production/distribution of content, let alone the vast sums realized from data acquisition, processing and sale. Classical Marxists would argue that it doesn't create use value but actually the real value lies in the actual physical infrastructure, networks, servers etc needed to publish and distribute the content, that's where the value of the content is actually embedded and of course the labour needed to manufacture it.
Agreed that the situation is dystopian.
