I watched the movie “Enemy of the State” the other day. It was released in 1998, but it was a true prediction of the future.

I went to see this movie in the theater with a friend and his father, who was ex-NSA and never spoke about his job.

The only thing his father had to say about the film was “that film roughly approximated our tech about fifteen years ago, it is more advanced now.”
