CBC: Beware of Facebook's Beacon?

"On the other hand, Facebook users may have been numbed into accepting the fact that they have no control, no privacy, and instead are going to be seduced by the way in which this system informs them of their friends' activities.

The power of surveillance is such that we can give up our own privacy as long as we also get to be in the position of the voyeur, spying on our friends and their online activities."

Sounds similar to the comprehension passage we did sometime back.

Geoffrey Cobley: "Of course, there will be those who cry out in protest that we are becoming like ants in an anthill, mere cogs in a well-oiled machine, slaves of an all-powerful state from which we can have no secrets. But I believe that by giving up all claims to individual freedom, we will discover the best way to achieve it."

How far do you agree with his view? How free do you want to be? In giving your views, explain where and why you agree or disagree with Geoffrey Cobley.
