Blog 7

How can I feel like I am not in a reality show when every single move I do or anything I say is being watched or recorded.  Social media controls the world we live in today.  When I update my status on Facebook or "Tweet" it shows the exact time and location.  Everyone knows what was on my mind at the moment and where I was.  Now if someone gets too carried away with what they say on social media frequently that can harm the lives of others, they can be reprimanded by the higher power which is know as the "Big Brother".  Your "tweet" can be "trending" on Twitter and have the entire world see.  As I drive to work on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) there are cameras watching me when I am speeding or in dead stop traffic.  Your location is known all the time by the local authorities which the GPS you have on your phone and the GPS in your car.  From the cameras, they know how many times you went through the bridges and tunnels.  They also know what time you went through them and if you spoke to anyone on the phone.  In conclusion you are being watched constantly which makes me feel like I am in a reality show.
