LifeLog Died. Facebook Launched. The Surveillance Internet Was Born.

DARPA’s LifeLog was publicly killed the same day Facebook launched. That does not automatically prove a covert handoff, but it does expose something larger: the post-9/11 state, Silicon Valley, venture capital, intelligence-linked technology, platform surveillance, PRISM, data brokers, Flock cameras, AI bots, and the dead internet shift all moved along the same structural rail. The story is not just whether DARPA built Facebook. The deeper story is how government surveillance incentives and commercial platform incentives converged into the same machine.
