I've never been arrested by a corporation.
- Tyrannosaurs 13y agoDo you think law enforcement aren't included in there customers? I know for a fact in the UK at least that they are. As for being arrested by a corporation - that will change. The UK government for one are beginning a process of outsourcing some elements of front line policing.
- malandrew 13y agoInteresting thought, I can imagine an ad campaign on Facebook targeting marijuana growers, and then the government using the profile information of those that click through to investigate them.
- Tyrannosaurs 13y agoThis is less targeted - simply using the usage information many large commercial organisations are gathering, the stuff people are giving up without thinking. At present it's anonymised and is being used for broad profiling of areas, but I can see that changing over time.
- phaer 13y agoIn the current political climate you might have to wait no longer than about a decade for that to happen. Several countries already started out-sourcing prison guards and/or other security relevant jobs to companies like G4S
- xradionut 13y agoWhy should they arrest you when they can destroy you economically?
- mortyseinfeld 13y agoI'd rather be "destroyed economically" than thrown in a gulag.
- CamperBob2 13y agoBecause they don't make money by destroying me economically, duh.
