Who’s ready for the flight risk category 👋👋

The DHS is a shameful boondoggle and should not be.

Warrantless Mass Surveillance… so hot right now

Right now? Where have you been for the last two decades?

RaoulDook@lemmy.world on 27 Sep 2023 13:59 collapse

I’ve been complaining about it the whole time, were you not listening?

It’s hot right now, and it was before too

Both our accounts are 3 months old.

I was probably next to you complaining about it with a different anonymous account.

Sounds like time for a bot army.

This is the DHS we’re talking about, after all. The dregs of the 3-letter agencies, you could probably fool them with an old iPad and a 6 year old randomly pasting comments around.

Everything keeps getting more and more dystopian.

What does Toothless have to do with the DHS?

I’m actually fine with this. It’s essentially reading through information made publicly available by the users themselves and determining if they are a threat based on that information.

This is literally what we want. This isn’t surveillance of private data, this is watching what people themselves put into the public.

This isn’t surveillance of private data

Yet

That’s the line we draw. Digging into people’s private data in the name of security is inherently an invasion of privacy. This is… looking at public information.

Sounds like the moral score of China
