RFID Tracking IDs in Schools - Non-compliance = Exclusion

<< < (4/5) > >>

Stoic Joker:
And what real safeguards can a school from government and law enforcement to stop all this data ending up in a national database (which has been discussed by politicians in the UK for decades).-Carol Haynes (October 11, 2012, 03:14 AM)

I think that's the point, they're not trying to stop it ... They're (the front line of the (for the children) first wave) trying to ease us into it. People will revolt (well they're supposed to anyway), children OTOH are taught to follow instruction from authority figures. So once you've been "registered" at school... It's already to late.

And worse, kids are taught that tracking people is "ok" and that people that don't want to be tracked are "difficult" or "bad". *cough* operant conditioning *cough*

It is impossible to look into the state of education now without being completely horrified. If you're not utterly horrified, you're either not looking or would love living in an Orwellian state.

Once they force it on kids -- they'll force it on adults. It's only a matter of time.

40hz:
^The US operant conditioning...oh...sorry...public education system has already had significant "success" as many employers are now learning when dealing with their next-gen hires.  :tellme:

This is probably more a question for 40hz, but you said it. (Um...) If the object is to get people to dislike/distrust/avoid/turn on people that resist their tracking mechanisms ... Wouldn't that be avoidance conditioning?
