- thomassmith65 4y agoThere's a limit to what we can extrapolate from someone being right about something once. It's probably somewhere between〝Google is working with the CIA…〞and〝…to identify children with high levels of adrenochrome〞
- ellopoppit 4y agoIndeed. Do you think extrapolating that governments and corporations may use a universal digital ID for mass surveillance, from the proven fact that governments and corporations work together to perform mass surveillance, is within that limit of valid speculation?
