MODERATORS
"The issue" that needs addressing is the obsession our governments have with spying on us.
What confuses me is that we, the people, have the upper hand according to democracy. So no classified information should exist within the people for democracy to function propperly.
Except that their are so many people that have no idea how the internet or such technologies work. And happily hand over their private lives cause "nothing to hide" BS.
Also brainwashing. People get their ideas from other people. Some through books, some through those they call experts but we‘re very easily influenced. Getting blasted with biased shows and commercials that show us how „fair“ law enforcement is makes people easy targets for pushing dangerous laws.
