it's all cool when the capitalist collects information to manipulate the public, but God forbid the government do the same.
- Geisterde 3y agoIts not clear to me that big data would be as prevelant as it is today in absense of a buyer of last resort (the government).
- chii 3y agoThe capitalists have a known motive - profit. Governments don't have this open motive, which makes it more insidious. And as the monopoly on force projection, the gov't has a lot more power than any capitalist. So google tracking me is "fine" (not that i would want it), but i sure as hell will not want the police to be tracking me without just cause.
