I looked at your other comments on lemmy for 30 sec and found that you are clearly joking. So glad everyone understands sarcasm.

Let's apply this to politicians who approve it and to corporate owners who push it. Suddenly it's a problem

So, every "intelligence agency" should release all information that exists about their entire surveillance apparatus, all of their spies, and activities? I'm on board!

Also, post a link to a 24/7 stream of your bathroom. If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear... right?
