Almost no discussion matters as long as Google Analytics/fonts is embedded in almost every website you visit. EFF is looking at individual grains of sand on a beach of surveillance. Pornhub publishes insights on their blog where they include an age/gender/country breakdown of their viewers. That data must come from somewhere, likely google analytics or something like it, which means that there is a thriving surveillance market whether there is age verification or not. The surveillance is already happening, there isn't any need to backdoor it because it's already there. People think google is a search company, but it's not. People think Facebook is a social media company, but it's not. They are privatized intelligence companies, intelligence as in the I in CIA. And rather than that intelligence being used to, said charitably, make America a safer place, that intelligence is being leveraged to make rich people richer and less regulated. Not enough of a spotlight is on privatized intelligence functions. It's no wonder it feels like corporations have more power than the government, they have access to mini privatized CIAs, with arguably much less oversight.
