Both things can be true. They can try and prevent -corporate- surveillance through things like GPDR and various consumer protections that are superior to say the USA. All the while they can be trying to "slip into your DMs, all your DM

I just don't believe those boycotts have the power they think. How many people are going to give up their Visa card because some do-gooder pearl-clutching MAGAtastic group is crying about it on tik-tok and facebook

The CC companies really need to tell the Debbie Downers and pearl clutchers to go pound sand. The CC companies hold all the power here, but are too cautious to push back, in the meanwhile they're losing out on all the commission money

To any Brit citizens, do you feel like the general populace won't fight back about their freedom being taken, or do you think that this will continue until a semi-autocracy result? Is it a topic of conversation in the general populatio

For me it's not so much a conspiracy as the natural flow as a society becomes more fascist (as most Western government are leaning) and more "police state". It's inevitable, they want to be able to spy on every aspect of

I personally think it's a first run for a secret police force, maybe coming as soon as next year. This will help them test the waters as well as set up facilities and training centers they can leverage later for a new stasi type force.
