Do you guys think this is security apparatus backed, or politically backed?
I mean do you think that this is the government being "convinced" by law enforcement and the rest of the security apparatus in order to maintain the state of easy interception, and mass intelligence gathering?
Or do you think this is purely politicians thinking about how to keep their analytics algorithms and propaganda machines fed with data collected from social media on private chats?
- throwawayffffas 5y agoI think it's both but I wonder what everyone else is thinking.
- denton-scratch 5y agoI think it's neither; this is just pure politics - it's meant to distract the attention of authoritarian backbench conservative MPs away from the manifest deficiencies of their leader.
