Every twelve minutes. That's how often the average person checks their phone-not because we're waiting for something urgent, but because we've been engineered to crave it. We live in an age where democracy itself is under siege, not by tanks or tyrants, but by the very devices we can't put down. The threat isn't coming from outside our borders; it's nestled in our pockets, learning our deepest fears and desires with every swipe and click. What happens when the tools designed to connect us become weapons that divide us, when the platforms promising freedom deliver surveillance, and when the technologies meant to empower citizens instead undermine the very foundations of self-governance? We're all living inside a digital panopticon-Jeremy Bentham's prison design reimagined for the smartphone era. But this time, the guards are algorithms, and the prisoners volunteered. This isn't paranoia; it's business strategy refined over a century, and understanding how we got here is the first step toward breaking free.
