They dragnet surveil to get dirt on the ten thousand or so lawmakers that matter.
- always2slow 2y agoWhile your presentation is probably getting you downvoted, this is the real problem. They use this information to control/influence government officials or people with power.
- marcosdumay 2y ago> lawmakers that matter And journalists, and people that see something and may want to wristleblow, and people that know commercial secrets (yes, they've been caught doing commercial spying). There are more categories here. And, of course, there's always the danger that the one random person that you didn't see eye to eye earlier just happens to work there.
- Liquix 2y agothey dragnet surveil to build an increasingly accurate stockpile of data on an increasing number of people. everything is catalogued and filed away, nothing is discarded. at some point in the past or future, this data has been/will be weaponized via ML and used in the best interest of whomever controls it (the government), not in the best interest of the surveilled masses. this is why it is important to care about your privacy on the internet.
