yep. this year the australian government passed a bill that allows for a data retention regime that collects metadata. this puts countless asylum seekers in danger as the information is stored offshore, likely in china to keep costs low. some people do have things to hide

Almost all technology has a potential for evil. Take a hammer for instance - I'm pretty sure 1-5k years ago - it would have been a technological advance, Today, it could be used to help construct a home for the homeless, or it could you be used to smash the head of someone you don't like. Should we not make hammers? I hardly think tools are a cause for alarm but rather the intent of the person is what we ever have to be vigilant in determining.

that's a dogshit argument

That people's intent > than the tool(s) they use? How so?

Big brother can track me all he wants not a single fuck will be given

because we're talking about data collection using electronics, not hammers. in this case the tool is far more important than intent.


"the credit history & home location of millions of citizens was compromised today due to a security breach"

"well at least their heart was in the right place"

cool
