Should we use code names for our friends?

Since privacy is dead and we are being monitored constantly,

can we use a counter-tactic of using only code names for our friends when we use digital media?

Would this also work for objects, like calling the car John or the computer Freddie?

Should projects like going shopping or going to work be referred to as going swimming or going on vacation?

I think it's a good idea. You will note that when I talk about Mr A , I always refer to him as Mr B, so Mr C does not know who I am talking about.

This is the topic of our times and our new digital lives, after a stint in China I saw more, and then concluded the "developed" world is likely worse but has the convenient, " we're the good gov't we know what's best and we are also on moral high ground in all matters under the sun" mantra to play over and over to the oppression and the green movement 32 y old know it alls that will buy into a left wing dictatorship just because they cannot fathom the deaths and suffering involved to get to where they can worry only about important things like using Apple Pay at Lucky (shopping locally at traditional Khmer markets just is just to unsafe for them) The Chinese influence in the KOW appears to me to go well beyond development and also includes new esoteric arrangements for training the KOW's best and brightest to utilize a whole new chest box full of cutting edge tech for watching and keeping track of individuals and also localized over the KOA border threats. Big Brother is in fact here but if you were running the ops here you may find yourself marrying into that family too to because China plays the game well, often stupid and repetitive, but in the long run, or say 40 years ahead, their plans
their persistence pays off and they prevail. Glad I'm almost past the age of giving too much care to these matters anymore, artificial intelligence, mandatory GPS etc will not bring us forward IMHO.
