This is the most important article I have ever written. I also think that this is the single most important issue of our generation. It also needs to be the highest priority for us as parents.
I am not a deeply religious man, but sometimes God does prompt me.
This time God sent me 1 word.
Panopticon.
What does that mean you ask? Well according to wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon
The Panopticon is a type of institutional building designed by English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the late eighteenth century. The concept of the design is to allow a watchman to observe (-opticon) all (pan-) inmates of an institution (from a central location) without them being able to tell whether or not they are being watched.
The design consists of a circular structure with an "inspection house" at its centre, from which the managers or staff of the institution are able to watch the inmates, who are stationed around the perimeter. Bentham conceived the basic plan as being equally applicable to hospitals, schools, sanatoriums, daycares, and asylums, but he devoted most of his efforts to developing a design for a Panopticon prison, and it is his prison which is most widely understood by the term.
Bentham himself described the Panopticon as "a new mode of obtaining power of mind over mind, in a quantity hitherto without example."[1] Elsewhere, he described the Panopticon prison as "a mill for grinding rogues honest"
No prisons were ever built like a panopticon... yet... but there is another aspect of this word...
Although the Panopticon prison design did not come to fruition during Bentham's time, it has been seen as an important development. It was invoked by Michel Foucault (in Discipline and Punish) as metaphor for modern "disciplinary" societies and their pervasive inclination to observe and normalise. For Foucault, Bentham’s Panopticon is a symbol for the modern disciplinary society. "On the whole, therefore, one can speak of the formation of a disciplinary society in this movement that stretches from the enclosed disciplines, a sort of social ‘quarantine’, to an indefinitely generalizable mechanism of ‘panopticism’."[31] The Panopticon is an ideal architectural figure of modern disciplinary power. The Panopticon creates a consciousness of permanent visibility as a form of power, where no bars, chains, and heavy locks are necessary for domination any more.
So in essence, its a prison without walls. A prison, where you will assume that you are being watched, whether true or not, and you will eventually police yourself because you assume they are watching. And if you are a rogue spirit, you will be "ground" honest.
So whats the point?
Well you may not be aware of what our generation has been building. And you may laugh and scoff and shrug this off as ridiculous. Except it is very real, and almost complete.
Artificial Intelligence.
Google is alive. It has become a "consciousness"
http://mashable.com/2012/10/09/google-artificial-intelligence/
Google has developed software similar to what neuroscientists believe exist in the visual cortex of mammals, Yoshua Bengio, a professor at the University of Montreal tells MIT's Technology Review.
"It turns out that the feature learning networks being used [by Google] are similar to the methods used by the brain that are able to discover objects that exist,"
So now we have google building a brain, but why?
Well, espionage of course!
'Google for spies' draws ire from rights groups
A multinational security firm has secretly developed software capable of tracking people's movements and predicting future behaviour by mining data from social networking websites.
A video obtained by the Guardian reveals how an "extreme-scale analytics" system created by Raytheon, the world's fifth largest defence contractor, can gather vast amounts of information about people from websites including Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare.
Raytheon says it has not sold the software - named Riot, or Rapid Information Overlay Technology - to any clients. But the Massachusetts-based company has acknowledged the technology was shared with US government and industry as part of a joint research and development effort, in 2010, to help build a national security system capable of analysing "trillions of entities" from cyberspace.

A confidential Justice Department memo concludes that the U.S. government can order the killing of American citizens...The 16-page memo, a copy of which was obtained by NBC News, provides new details about the legal reasoning behind one of the Obama administration’s most secretive and controversial polices
In an article from The Hill, the TWISTED legal justification is laid out in more detail
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/281069-doj-white-paper-on-killer-drones-and-us-citizens-abroad
“Basically, it argues that the government has the right to carry out the extrajudicial killing of an American citizen. … It recognizes some limits on the authority it sets out, but the limits are elastic and vaguely defined, and it’s easy to see how they could be manipulated,"
The technology is growing more widespread, more powerful, and shrinking in size...
There are over 63 FAA approved drone locations in the USA
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2012/04/24/where-are-the-63-drone-sites-approved-by-the-faa-in-the-u-s/
Here is a video about the Air Force's Miniature Aerial Vehicle program
Watch these bird and insect like drones fly, hover, perch, land, crawls, take off
AND SHOOT A HUMAN TARGET IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD
And the government is ARMING ITSELF TO THE TEETH
They have purchased 2,000,000,000 (2 BILLION) rounds of ammo in the last 10 months!
http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/02/17/Feds-Buy-2-Billion-Rounds-Of-Ammunition
And the government is buying TARGETS, with pictures of
PREGNANT WOMEN
CHILDREN
ELDERLY PEOPLE
and using them for target practice, at the taxpayers expense of over $2 million dollars!

So, we are giving the government detailed data about every aspect of our life!
Every time we turn on a light.
Every time we cook.
Every time we text.
Every time we tweet.
Every email.
Every digital picture.
Every phone call.
Every time we drive our car.
Every time we turn on our tv.
Every time we play a game.
Every time we... well you get the point, I hope.
So we are in a situation, where the government can see and hear EVERYTHING we say or do.
They can see us, but we cannot see them.
And it is all being monitored by ONE central system called RIOT
Just like the Panopticon.
We have built this virtual prison for ourselves. For our children actually.
They will grow up in this prison and will no nothing besides it.
And it will get worse, as the merging of machine and man progresses...

Look familiar Luke Skywalker?
We must save our kids.
Try to do anything today without the government knowing about it.
There are no more pay phones.
The yellow pages have been replaced by google.
Libraries are being replaced by kindles and ipads.
Our kids dont eat unless its packaged.
They dont learn without a screen.
And what if something happens to the prison?
What if our enemies drop and EMP bomb on us?
or the sun decides to burp a CME the wrong direction,
and all this technology...
suddenly stops working?
We MUST teach our kids... well... to be preppers!
To cook.
To hunt.
To fish.
To farm.
To build.
To do math.
To write
To remember HISTORY.
To defend themselves, against the hungry, angry hoards of uneducated people
who cannot eat their broken ipads.
