Reduced Planck Constant
In quantum mechanics, ℏ sets the minimum scale of action—in surveillance capitalism, your attention has been similarly quantized into indivisible units of engagement.

Vacuum Fluctuation
In quantum physics, even empty space seethes with temporary particles—and in the attention economy, your moments of stillness are never truly empty either.
quantum-mechanics
Virtual Particle
In quantum field theory, particles flicker into existence from nothing—just like your digital footprint materializes from interactions you never consciously made.

Many-Worlds Interpretation
Every click spawns a universe where the algorithm knows you differently—and they're all real.
quantum-mechanics
Quantum Gate
Every click is a measurement that collapses infinite possibility into a single, monetizable truth.
quantum-mechanics
Quantum Entanglement
When particles become inseparable across infinite distance, they mirror how your digital self entangles with corporate observers—bound by invisible correlations you never agreed to.
quantum-mechanics
Quantum Superposition
You exist in multiple states simultaneously until the algorithm collapses you into a demographic.
quantum-mechanics
Expectation Value
In quantum mechanics, you never measure what you expect—you measure the average of infinite possibilities collapsed into your singular now.
quantum-mechanics
Eigenvalue
In quantum mechanics, measurement collapses possibility into a single eigenvalue—just as surveillance capitalism collapses you into a single, predictable data point.
quantum-mechanics
Complementarity
In quantum mechanics, you can measure position or momentum, but never both—just like the platforms that know everything about you except who you really are.
