You might change your mind when the government starts tracking the fact that you drove to an abortion clinic.

  >You might change your mind when the government starts tracking the fact that you drove to an abortion clinic. Where might the government get such data? They certainly aren't gathering it themselves. Rather, it will come from the corporate entities that are already gathering such data. What's more, I can organize my neighbors to vote out folks who want to spy on me. I can't do that (well, I guess if I had a few trillion dollars to buy majority stakes in various corporations, although that wouldn't work with Facebook[0] though) with the corporations that are already spying on me. Just so I understand your position, you appear to believe that bad things a government might do with the help of corporations that are already doing those bad things is what we should be concerned about rather than what those same corporations are already doing. Is that your argument? I just want to make sure I understand, as I'd like to have a discussion and not create straw men. Thanks!
