Thank you for illustrating my point about the poisoned well. Say "Don't participate in crimes" and it gets morphed into 1984.


Most people aren’t doing crimes. Roads are used to traffic drugs but we don’t hold the state accountable nor do we setup checkpoints within country to inspect cars for illegal material because some % of cars do.

If your point is that privacy advocates aren’t considering the negative aspects of technology I’m sure they have but see these efforts as a reach towards more state surveillance.
