In America, television watches you.
Clue, set in the 1950s:
“J. Edgar Hoover is on your phone?”
“Why shouldn’t he be? He’s on everyone else’s.”
The 1960s ...
“Can’t talk now, you don’t know who might be listening.”
The 1970s and 80s ...
“Did you hear how they caught the boss?”
The 1990s ...
“I’m starting to worry about privacy.”
The Noughtys...
“Meh, encryption is too much trouble.”
The Teens ...
“Hey espionage device, when is the movie showing at Cinemark?”
Mentioned also in a cheesy 70s Sci Fi movie about an opposite earth that looked just like 70s America.
