I don't see how the surveillance economy can be destroyed without a
major revolution.
(Although revolutions appear to be becoming fashionable).
When surveillance has become essential for commerce, big business
won't stop doing it.
Governments find the out-sourcing of surveillance to corporate
organisations very convenient, as they create large databases at no
cost to the government.
And government has access to that data whenever required.
It is corporatocracy, a win-win for corporations and government.
