Oh, Are you the same Blender Dumbass 2.0 ?
When mass surveillance works, you lose your rights, and when it doesn't work as intended ( which as the government says to protect you from terrorists ), it gets things wrong and it can be too damaging, like when Google flagged a man who sent his child's photos to a doctor, or when Facial recognition system gets the wrong person, or when a bank algorithm locks someone of their own account due to suspicious activity.. etc
So we're damned when it works and we're damned when it doesn't.
Edit: how can I do the math? Do you have any links..
I am the same blenderdumbass as in odysee.com/@blenderdumbass:f and as in blenderdumbass.org
well, you're becoming famous :) .. interesting articles you got there 😁
😀
I documented the math I did on this article: https://blenderdumbass.org/articles/Surveillance_Harms_1000_Times_More_Than_It_Helps.md
