We'll look back at this period in history and say "WTF where we thinking!"

With the invention of the internet, we humans have access to more information than ever before. Enough sources of info to separate the propaganda & bullshit yet we live in an age where the majority of people in the West don't give a fuck.

Don't care about loss of

1) Privacy
2) Civil Liberties
3) Standard Of Living

That's what I find truly depressing. If the 99% could properly comprehend just how much they've been fucked over by the 1% in the past decade we'd have had an Arab spring scenario in the West.
