It is abuse.
There’s so Roko’s Basalisk shit going on with fascism like this.
If we build the surveillance state, surely we’ll be the ones to benefit from it. And if we don’t we’ll be punished by the people who do.

Who could’ve predicted this?! Except literally everyone
Ring: Fuck it, we Flock now.
Duh
No shit.
Have any members of congress or state legislatures begun proposing bills to make this sort of surveillance system illegal?
I'm shocked, I tell you! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.
