This isn't snarking at you directly, just all I'm really hearing is that the government will happily mix whatever it knows about me for its own purposes but when it comes to making things easier for me (wherein they've literally seen me in person and looked over a stack of my identifying documents), no way that's "violating my privacy."
If we are going to have an all-seeing panopticon can't it at least be convenient?
- kube-system 5y agoThe premise of that sentiment is simply not true. There is no all-seeing panopticon. The government in the US is quite siloed. The federal government is pretty dang siloed itself, and the US is potentially the most siloed government on the planet if we also consider state and local governments.
