For your fifth blog assignment, listen to the “Burning Down the Panopticon” episode of the podcast Benjamen Walker’s Theory of Everything and write a post between 200 and 400 words that responds to the following prompt.

Benjamen Walker argues that “the Panopticon is a terrible metaphor” for “our conversations and debates about surveillance.” Do you agree with this thesis? Why or why not?

Note that if you agree with Walker’s thesis, you should extend his argument in your blog post in some interesting way.

Please (1) give your post a descriptive title, (2) assign it to the “Student Posts” category, and (3) give it at least three useful tags. Your post is due by 9:00 a.m. on Monday, September 23rd.
