It starts with “nothing to hide, so who cares?” It ends with the government having leverage to intimidate and blackmail its own citizens.

- pbhjpbhj 8y agoIf it's going that way then it's simple to pass a law making hiding your face, at all, unlawful. I don't get the slippery slope argument here -- if you have power to act on it then you have power to make it lawful for you to act on it so you don't need to use overtly gathered past databases. No need for gov to do any of this to blackmail you, plant a record with an ISP arrest you for indecency; much easier?
