Best Buy Geek Squad Agents ‘Going Sleeper’ After Mass Layoffs

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Hey man, you're kinda narrowing down the entire problem of the right to privacy being consistently shat upon by your government into "well I knew one person where it was justified so this means those who argue against it fuck kids"
I understand what you mean and if you want to carve an exception into the law for CP I'd be all for it - maybe everyone is a mandated reporter of child porn, and all suspicions MUST be reported to the FBI and the evidence handed over. But I don't wanna get swatted just because my wife and I are into BDSM and we photographed a particularly rough session. Or because I took some pics of some clear plastic bags filled with flour that I put in my trunk to prank a friend. Or a million other things a geek squad guy might misinterpret and call the police for.
That would be inconvenient.
Would you make it to where computer techs wouldn’t be able to report suspected crimes?
That probably would be the opposite extreme, and I have a feeling entirely different situations will rise out of that.
Tbh idk what I'd do. It's good I'm not in a position to decide. I just think the federal government offering people incentives to bypass privacy is dangerous and wrong.
