Deception
Deception is offensively using falsified information,
lying, and obscuring the truth to manipulate
information or opinion.
Denial
Denial is defensively protecting information from being
shared or claiming facts are untrue. Protection can
include both physical security, and prevention
techniques such as blame shifting, censorship,
distraction, and media manipulation.
Imagine living in a real-life 1984 or Fahrenheit 451.
What would you do if you were a citizen of a "town" that is controlled by a
large corporation? What would you do when corporate power is abused to such
an extent that your very freedom is jeopardized? What would "freedom" even
mean in such a context?
