"The United States government has been secretly amassing a “large amount” of “sensitive and intimate information” on its own citizens, a group of senior advisers informed Avril Haines, the director of national intelligence, more than a year ago.
The size and scope of the government effort to accumulate data revealing the minute details of Americans’ lives are described soberly and at length by the director’s own panel of experts in a newly declassified report. Haines had first tasked her advisers in late 2021 with untangling a web of secretive business arrangements between commercial data brokers and US intelligence community members."
I thought that this was timely and relevant. Does federalization/decentralization solve these issues as we go into Web3? I’m newer to these ideas.
Why the fuck is everyone acting like this is new information. Did people forget Edward Snowden. US government loves spying on and will do whatever it takes to spy on you harder. Your so called rights are a sham. The US government will ignore them when it’s convenient for them
My favorite are the people that willingly voted for or support the Patriot Act get mad about the “Twitter Files” and other govt overreach…
Like no shit you guys invited this type of stuff in.
Can’t the government be taken to court for breaking the constitution?
Probably the interpretation of “reasonable expectations of privacy” doesn’t apply to stuff you do online in the same way it applies to stuff you do in your house with curtains drawn… bc the constitution is an out-of-date document
or within earshot of the microphone on your phone…
by who, though? Itself?
