I dunno, I see a LOT of what he said existing today, especially the level of surveillance and control.
I highly recommend "Taking Control of Your Personal Data" by prof. Jennifer Golbeck, published by The Teaching Company, ISBN:978-1629978390, likely available at your local library as a DVD or streaming.
I think it's the third episode where she clarifies how extensive online surveillance is - I was surprised, it was even greater than even my paranoic mind thought.
I can't see it as streaming or DVD. But I can see it as an audiobook and on great courses plus website.
If anyone finds the video version I'd be appreciative.
