It seems this is based on the idea that NSA is tracking connections to a person connected to him. Unfortunately, if anyone at NSA were to read this, they would be very easily able to segment off this connection if they wanted. Seems like it would be trivial to add an exclusion.

It's an art project.

I think it's a personal experience and good political discussion more than anything.

But we are already at that point. Yesterday my significant other was riding the train when some police officers came and asked here and everyone else aboard to show their ID cards for identification checking.

She complied. Then she picked up her phone to text me what was going on but refrained herself at the last second. An officer was behind her back and she thought : « I don't want to be seen as suspect by using the phone while police officers are going on with their operation. ». She looked at the phone's clock instead.

I am pretty sure the officers were there to find some refugees. November 11th is WW1 Armistice day where we live which is a bit symbolic.
