> I agreed with him it's possible but I didn't see the problem and he didn't see why I didn't give a crap. Your assertion may be more placating than you advertise. This surveillance is asymmetrical and it may be that you don't object to that. Restated: Truly unavoidably collected surveillance data should be visible to the public, who could then use it to provide meaningful oversight of governments and other powerful entities. This provides symmetry that is ethical, moral and healthy to society. Strongly asymmetric surveillance is none of those. It gifts power that will eventually be used for authoritarian ends. I recommend not acquiescing to surveillance that is unethical, amoral and unhealthy to society.
