> George Orwell’s 1984 warned of a future where Big Brother watches every move. Today, modern technology is making that vision a reality, and Oracle founder Larry Ellison—the world’s second-richest person—sees a growing opportunity for his company to help authorities analyze real-time data from millions of surveillance cameras.

> Larry Ellison, in what was the most expansive and clearly unscripted section of Oracle’s hour-long public Q&A session last week, talked at some length about his vision for AI as a tool of mass surveillance. And, of course, he also suggested that, if one were to build an AI-powered surveillance state, Oracle (a company with a significant track record as a contractor for the US government) was the strategic partner best-suited to help realise that vision. [...] Ellison’s almost throwaway point at the end of the call is by far the most alarming part of his answer. “Citizens will be on their best behaviour because we’re constantly recording and reporting,” he said.

> Professor Diamond catalogued the multiple fronts of authoritarian encroachment. Independent media face unprecedented threats from concentrated ownership by Trump-aligned billionaires, such as the Ellison family’s acquisitions of TikTok and Paramount (including CBS News). Once pillars of journalistic independence, these outlets risk being transformed into regime mouthpieces. The trend mirrors patterns in Turkey, Venezuela, and Hungary, where businessmen allied with ruling parties purchased media outlets to neutralize dissent.

> TikTok is being sold to an investor consortium that includes Oracle, the tech company of pro-Trump billionaire Larry Ellison. The move is yet another big step in the consolidation of major media sources under right-wing control. [...] Ellison is a big Trumper, joining in the reactionary denial of the 2020 presidential elections. Like some of the others in the deal, he is part of the inner circle of Trump’s favorite corporate ideologues. This TikTok deal is not just about money. It’s about control of the political narrative.
