It helps contextualize our modern surveillance state by tracing its history, which, as with many things in this world, stretches back longer than you'd expect, and has more nuance than most people are willing to talk about. From the pie-in-the-sky idealism of 18th century architect Jeremy Bentham to the always-on monitoring of the smartphones we carry around every day, this is worth reading if you're even a little bit interested in surveillance (and you should be, because i. Come for the panopticon, stay for the shipping containers! The use of technology and infrastructure to monitor, modify, and control human behavior has never been a more important issue.

While Bentham's design was ostensibly for a prison, he believed that any number of places that require supervision—factories, poorhouses, hospitals, and schools—would benefit from such a design. In his groundbreaking 1975 study, Discipline and Punish, the panopticon became a metaphor to describe the creeping effects of personalized surveillance as a means for ever-finer mechanisms of control.Forty years later, the available tools of scrutiny, supervision, and discipline are far more capable and insidious than Foucault dreamed, and yet less effective than Bentham hoped. In 1787, British philosopher and social reformer Jeremy Bentham con
