Commercial Transactions, Including Food Deliveries And Online Purchases, Are Fed Into Vast Databases, Along With Everything From Biometric Information To Social Media Activities To Methods Of Birth Control. Cameras (So Advanced That They Can Locate A Single Person Within A Stadium Crowd Of 60,000) Scan For Faces And Walking Patterns To Track Each Individuals Movement. In Some Schools, Childrens Facial Expressions Are Monitored To Make Sure They Are Paying Attention At The Right Times.
