I still cannot figure out how this helps me in any fashion. I can see the cattle... I can read the tag. How can this be implemented to actually benefit me? It seems that it does nothing more than I can do with a pencil and a pocket notebook. At a MUCH higher cost.
Security Theater: Definition: Practices that appear to enhance security but do little to improve it. Examples: Airport security (shoe removal, liquid limits), visible police presence (patrols, random checks), and superficial ID checks. Characteristics: Symbolic actions that reassure without real security, divert resources from effective measures, and create an illusion of safety. Criticism: Ineffective, leading to complacency and false security; costly with minimal benefits; causes public stress and inconvenience. Purpose and Impact: Reassures the public, deters minor threats, and demonstrates action and control. Conclusion: Calms fears but lacks effectiveness, wasting resources and misleading the public. Control Theories: Government Control: Increased surveillance, conditioning public to accept control. Economic Gain: Benefits security firms, boosts security sector, supports World Economic Forum (WEF) supports reducing meat production Political Motives: Manipulates fear to control public, distracts from other issues. Social Engineering: Conditions behavior, normalizes surveillance. False Sense of Security: Prevents demand for real measures, maintains order through perceived safety.
