The Right to Be Wrong (Ebook)

It didn't care what he believed. Only what his curiosity resembled. Elliot Vance is the senior civil servant who signs the letters for a controversial government housing programme: seven thousand of them. He's never been to a protest. He has never said in public what he thinks about anything. But he wants to understand the people who oppose him. So at night, at his kitchen table, he reads their arguments on OpenMind, a private reading app that promises nobody is watching. He reads both sides. He doesn't change his mind. Six weeks later, his security clearance is cut. Nobody will tell him why. Then a data request comes back nineteen pages long, almost all of it blacked out except one line: "elevated alignment with anti-government protest movements." The government doesn't need to know what Elliot believes. It has bought something else: a record of how he reads. THE RIGHT TO BE WRONG: a novella of privacy, doubt and the people who watch.
