Missing Malaysia Airlines flight sparks pretext to surveil the world
If only we monitored all people. If only we monitored all places. Perhaps we’d know where Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is.
If only we were all-seeing and all-knowing, nothing BAD could happen ever again.
This line of thinking will take us beyond national, international, and global surveillance, and deep into the realm of monitoring the brain and the very thoughts in our heads. This is not outlandish or unappealing to those who seek ultimate control.

“The plan is being drafted to expand our regional monitoring capability to global coverage.”
If the plan gets the go-ahead from lawmakers its expected to launch in as few as two years.
The Chinese government’s current satellite surveillance capabilities are a state secret, though it is thought that most carry out surveillance over China and closely surrounding regions.
There are more than 1,000 satellites in orbit above the earth, most used for communication. According to statistics from the US-based Union of Concerned Scientists, 50 are earth-observation, remote-sensing and military-surveillance satellites.
This is a prime example of government never letting a “crisis go to waste”. (You might remember Rahm Emanuel famously saying.)
