47% of orders are for drugs, 0.1% are for child rape, what of the other 53%?
selling some weed == selling photos of a baby being raped? Probably not right? So what is the scalar of impact on society & the victims of these crimes? 10x? 100x? 1,000x? 1,000,000x?
What about terrorism? Is death by terrorism == death by murder? Based on the way the two are treated for 'privacy' reasons it would apper that being shot and killed by a terrorist is about 1,000x more impactful than being shot and killed by a school shooter which in turn is about 100x being shot by the guy who lives down the street.

And it isn't even the party on the right side of the spectrum, those are just dumb and won't get anything done. Authoritarianism has a long culture here and people happily prosecute you for the common good just as well as for nationalistic ambitions. It is a fundamental fear that people believe they can get rid of if they constrain others.
- shapefrog 5y agoSeems a bit of an oversight to ignore the reasoning for 53% of the requests, or perhaps the classification of them was inconvenient for the purpose of their argument.
