Latest Computer Game “Orwell” Trains You to Be a Master Spy on Citizens
There couldn’t be a better example to highlight the extent to which governments are prepared to snoop on us than by a new computer game called Orwell. In this game you are invited to take on the role of a master surveillance officer, spying on citizens’ online activities.
The game engages you in its claimed virtual state-of-the-art security, while using information retrieval and profiling on fictitious citizens. In so many words, promoters of the game say that as an international master surveillance officer you will need to have the ability to discern suspects through recognizing their suspicious online activities. The promo goes on to say that, “stakes are high and lives hang in the balance…” emphasizing you are needed to “make sure that the world is a safer place… ”
Wouldn’t this game be enough to make George Orwell turn in his grave??
Occupy democracy activist George Barda commented that the game’s creators want the public to know about the length and breadth extents to which authorities have been granted powers to spy on its citizenry in real-life, as you would expect in a modern-day 1984 Orwellian scenario. Notice, incidentally, that the computer game’s logo (above) resembles planet Saturn’s hexagonal 6-pointed star a major occult symbol used by the ruling elite.
