Actual, Personal Repercussions

Changed:
<
<		All we actively experience as a result of data surveillance is more ads based on websites we have viewed, a trivial annoyance. The breakdown of internet privacy rights has not had its mobilizing Ferguson moment. Wikileaks is far too removed from our personal everyday lives. Snowden, while many hoped and still hope will be the face of an internet privacy revolution, appears to have not been, again because there was no personally-felt effect or repercussion for the program on the average American. Millennials have not actually experienced an injustice to their rights that is large enough but specific enough to them individually to create outrage. But this will happen soon. Whether AppleWatch? decides to sell information from its extensive medical tracking capabilities to insurance companies which then deny you coverage or reimbursement based on that information, or Google providing prospect government employers with information about one's not-so-dignified extracurricular activities -- when realities of data-mining get simultaneously scarier and more personal, beyond advertising effects, we will see change.
