companies starts collecting personal data
People: "I don't care what [company] knows about me"
data ends up in the hands of the surveillance state
people:
People: "I have nothing to hide!"
And nothing worth protecting, apparently.
Maybe citizens should start buying location data on Kash Patel, Hegseth, Vance, Thiel, Ellison, etc. You know, so everyone knows where they are at all times in case they want to thank them forcall the good work they're doing.
Start a GoFundMe and post the link. I will gleefully pitch in.
Can I sell my location? I already know where I am and I could use the money.
Who are they buying that data from?
Apple, Google, Amazon, and Microslop have all devices that are tracking location 24/7.
From other states i guess? Isn't this the whole point of UKUSA?
Wait, from companies? They aren't allowed to use that data.
