MICHEL FOUCAULT

Michel Foucault opened my eyes when he gave the example of a "central Tower" in a prison setting, and the prisoners never know if they are being watched, but they live as if they are being watched, fast forward to today, I see cameras everywhere, at intersections, stores, private homes, computers and camera phones to name a few. In comparison , to the prisoners being watched, one never knows when someone is watching them in todays society. With all of these cameras, society in the most part, seems to govern themselves.
