Why do you think that they give a shit about online privacy? This isn't a privacy bill, it's a bill stopping another government from doing exactly the same shit that the US government does through domestic apps. They aren't looking out for people, they're afraid of the competition.
This is exactly the take I find the most interesting.
This is what the US has been doing everywhere for a decade+ now and suddenly it's not ok? It's because the grip is loosening and the sense of control and power is absolutely slipping and while it's late to be grasping to get it back, it's not unwarranted.
I actually don't think it's a bad idea cause seriously creating an addiction that can only be served by other countries is not good for a healthy and good local populace. Is it a bit karma sure but I'd rather not live it as the same non addict if we can help it.
