This Kafkaesque system will be the end result of the constant increased collection of information from governments (and private businesses, which is the same, they're bed-pals, only after a certain size it's the businesses that wear the strap-on) everywhere.

Technology is a multiplier. It can give us some irrelevant goods (basically, access to every article, news, movie, information without effort, in other words, without any real investment from us, or the ability to make some bureaucratic experience faster, while helping add tons of new bureaucratic requisites that weren't there before), but it mostly multiplies control, and thus dystopia.
