      Errr, George, you might want to look into this whistleblower named #EdwardSnowden. He reckons the most powerful "democracies" - including the US - have already "paired their corporate surveillance systems with state-sponsored surveillance", and have been doing it for years. State-corporate surveillance in the Philippines - bad as it is for Filipinos - is the least of our worries on a global scale.
