Control shifts from external surveillance to a deterrence system internalized as the self.

Evidence

Something else in regard to the Louds. “You no longer watch TV, it is TV that watches you (live),” or again: “You are no longer listening to Don’t Panic, it is Don’t Panic that is listening to you” - a switch from the panoptic mechanism of surveillance (Discipline and Punish [Surveiller et punir]) to a system of deterrence, in which the distinction between the passive and the active is abolished. There is no longer any imperative of submission to the model, or to the gaze “YOU are the model!” “YOU are the majority!” Such is the watershed of a hyperreal sociality, in which the real is confused with the model, as in the statistical operation, or with the medium, as in the Louds’ operation. — Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation, 108

• DEEPTHINKING: The redefinition of power as deterrence (‘YOU are the model!’) overturns active/passive and subject/object, dissolving the ontology of the knowing subject that both Marxist and liberal critique presuppose.
