The US learned in 2016 that information is a tool of war. Defending oneself against the encroachment of zero privacy operators is going to have to be fought with information as well. Laws have no teeth, which will continue to be the case indefinitely due to Citizen's United.

What do you think the CIA, KGB, CCP have been doing all this time? I swear people just stopped thinking critically when Trump was elected. Things were broken long before 2016.
