“We have arrived, way ahead of schedule, into the dystopian future dreamed up by not only Orwell, but also such fiction writers as Aldous Huxley, Margaret Atwood and Philip K. Dick. Our world is characterized by widespread surveillance, behavior prediction technologies, data mining, fusion centers, driverless cars, voice-controlled homes, facial recognition systems, cybugs and drones, and predictive policing (pre-crime) aimed at capturing would-be criminals before they can do any damage. What once seemed futuristic no longer occupies the realm of science fiction,” said constitutional attorney John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute and author of Battlefield America: The War on the American People. “As a constitutional attorney, I have spent my life working to stave off the totalitarian future that Orwell envisioned. As a writer—a dreamer—and a lifelong freedom fighter, this fictional series is my attempt to help my fellow travelers navigate a world that is no longer friendly to freedom.”
 One of the nation’s most vocal and involved civil liberties attorneys, John W. Whitehead is the president of The Rutherford Institute. The author of the best-selling Battlefield America: The War on the American People and A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State, Whitehead also writes a syndicated weekly column, which focuses on tyranny, injustice, the government's use of emerging technologies to oppress the population, resistance, activism, and the tendency of power to corrupt. The Rutherford Institute, a nonprofit civil liberties organization, provides legal assistance at no charge to individuals whose constitutional rights have been threatened or violated and educates the public on a wide spectrum of issues affecting their freedoms.
