I might be able to agree with you if they hadn’t already said that it’s basically being misused and I’m talking about the people using it, not some crackpot or tin foil hat person. Also, the case for its necessity and its utility is very flimsy. Looke into snowden. Look into flock cameras. If you can even scratch the surface on those two topics and come back with the same argument… Well, then I just don’t know what to do with you. lol
You can put in whatever safeguard you want, but there will still be people that will misuse it, and they won’t get caught. That’s what’s already been happening with the levels of surveillance that we’ve already had since 2001, and even more so in 2004 with the Patriot Act.
In many ways, it’s already too late and it has been proven that what we have already has not not been handled responsibly.
Circling around to say I thought about this over the last four days. In brief, my perspective that you can have a surveillance apparatus and a contemporary democracy in the 21st century were misguided. You are right.

That’s a fair set of arguments.
Thank you.
I probably could have been a little bit more succinct and just said “past is prologue, QED, you are incorrect.”

This is the first I’ve seen or heard of this kind of reversal on the internet.
… Of course it was on bee haw!
Thanks for following up.
Stay safe out there.
