Fun quote from an essay on CCTV surveillance and free will:
God is really no different than any other parent. All he wants is absolute, unquestioning obedience (which, by an amazing coincidence, also happens to be exactly what every child wants from their parents.)
The rest of the essay is as well written but flawed in its conceit. There are many reasons to ridicule the popularity of Michel Foucault’s arguments but his absence from an essay about surveillance is a weakness.
