"** Not quite. I was wondering if there is a link between the rise of surveillance and the kind of surveillance that people experienced in the 19th century and the popularity of pornography. That isn't my position, that's my question."

Well the link would have to be the attendant growth and appeal of the repressed--under surveillance. In other words, bigger profits for porn, less control and no social status for the workers. Works for drugs, right? I don't know if it made it more popular, but it made it more expensive.
