There's also the problem of selective enforcement. Nearly everyone has done something wrong at some point, even if it was a minor traffic offence. If surveillance is good enough, the government will have dirt on close to 100% of people, leaving it in the position of being able to dig up decades of minor offences whenever it doesn't like you.
- Aerroon 6y agoSelective enforcement is the big one. Our society simply isn't suited for everyone knowing what everyone else is doing. Even if our laws somehow didn't suffer from selective enforcement, people who find some (legal) things that you do immoral can still use that to justify trying to harm you.
