    So you don’t understand how mass surveillance works? “Big brother” isn’t “watching” you in real time, they’re collecting and storing all the data they can en masse and having AI look at it for them. I personally object to the warrantless collection and storage of everyone’s data.

        If there is a data breach, all of the information gathered can easily be used for mass identity theft. (Or other thefts, i.e. credit card theft)
