You talk about meaningful differences, but then lump a search in a database with stop and frisk. Either everyone is allowed to use hyperbole or no one is - you can’t have it both ways.
- tomsthumb 8y agoDo you understand the difference between searching an individual you know had committed a crime and searching pool of people that might contain an individual? No hyperbole needed, and only one way is present :)
- ribosometronome 8y agoI'm hung up on that I, as a member of the general public, can essentially do the same thing when using the service more-or-less as intended. In talking about searching a pool of people, I'm not really seeing how this is different than using Facebook to search for Criminal McEvildoer's name. The police are searching a pool of people (facebook users) to match a string. It's effectively the same thing, yeah? The big issue here is that people are making privacy decisions without thinking through the ramifications of the privacy decisions.
