• government uses fear for capitalism
• Fear of being used as a marketing strategy and move people towards self-surveillance. 
• Politicians are listening to what we want, but they change their message toward us and they won't change their policy
• Their policy still remains the predetermined interest
• They still trying to target their message subliminally to the audience. 
• This becomes anti-democratic
•  Government creating fear over people by wiretapping their phones (China is a perfect example)
• China wiretaps the phones and use some type of algorithm in order to maintain fear over their people or prevent any protests against the government. If a certain person says a few words repeatedly that becomes a threat to their government, their phones are completely shut down. 

  Companies that install security systems in a house many times try to create an advertisement that creates fear over people. Such fear then drives people to buy such security systems which gathers data that is collected by these companies.  I do agree with Andrejevic with such ideas because this is more or less a profitable war. From Boeing and Lockheed Martin making billions by creating military jets to private corporations installing surveillance cameras within their range and making millions out of it, we have become a nation where Uncle Sam is actually watching us everywhere. Even Google has the street view software within their webpage.
