And just as with the telescreens, sometimes the corporate #Internet will address itself to the end user directly, and of course it's always listening and collecting every last possible scrap of personal information, secretively and without the user's consent.

The #tech barons openly sneer at the premise that they've a duty to honor the common public's privacy. They regard their invasions of privacy as fait accompli and also voluntary on the users' part. Only those of low IQ, say the geeklords, could possibly even expect privacy on the Internet.
