Review:<\/p>\n

What began as a journalistic quest to investigate the literal terms and conditions we must accept prior to installing software, signing up for free accounts like Google & Facebook, and buying anything over the internet evolved into an investigate documentary about the erosion of privacy, and the discrete cooperative relationship between so-called benevolent corporations and secretive government agencies.<\/p>\n

Beginning with the emergence of the ubiquitous user agreements with their mandatory Accept \/ Decline buttons \u2013 a concept originally developed by a pizza company for its online delivery service \u2013 director \/ editor Cullen Hoback uses archival footage, pop culture media, and a plethora of interviews to trace the increasingly disturbing methods whereby corporations have become the legal conveyance through which governments can acquire sensitive data without going through a lengthy legal process. Hoback\u2019s film isn\u2019t a wake-up call \u2013 the mechanisms and agreements are too entrenched at this stage to scale back \u2013 but a snapshot of how we\u2019ve lost any sense of privacy for the benefit of preventing potential violence in a post-9\/11 era, and consciously resigned ourselves to an invasive existence.<\/p>\n
