Wherever you go, it seems electronic eyes follow. How did we get here ? In this informative and insighful work of comics journalism, surveillance expert Ivan Greenberg and artists Everett Patterson and Joseph Canlas illuminate the evolution of spy tactics, sources, and methods. The Machine Never Blinks takes you on a journey of intrigue from the Trojan Horse to the Bible to Lady Godiva (and the first "Peeping Tom").
It connects the dots in the evolution of intelligence gathering from the Civil War to the Cold War ; from 7984 to 9/11 ; to the FBI, CIA, and NSA ; to workplace surveillance from the time of slavery to the modern office. We now live in a surveillance society. Insatiable government and corporate databases, spyware, Facebook, Google, Twitter, GPS, RFID, biometrics, facial recognition - even surveillance as entertainment (reality TV) and convenience (smart speakers).
All are only part of the daily intrusions into your privacy, dignity - and sanity. Take a look around. Who or what is watching you right now ?
