Given the historical burden of promising an abundance of civil rights to ordinary citizens, the Empire's capitalist system's inevitable tendency to fascism must always be offset by efforts to carefully manage what their citizens are able to access as information about their world. Hence such methods like censorship chosen by military dictatorships are avoided by capitalist directors in favor of managing (or "manufacturing") consent of their subjects, in addition to 24/7 surveillance, by controlling information. This article examines the latest effort called the "Outernet" by our masters to do just that, and many people are falling for the ruse.
Thus the "great equalizer" Karim claimed Outernet is, is in fact yet another channel of Western government and corporate propaganda, giving those who already monopolize vast territory amid the information war, yet another weapon to use against unsuspecting minds. The only real feature that makes Outernet different from cable television or the Internet, is the fact that it is broadcast from a satellite, and thus difficult to block in a targeted country, and receivable by whomever the US State Department takes pilfered tax dollars and buys receiver sets for.
