AI surveillance
They are watching you, but you don't mind do you?
Quote: There appears to be a “dismissive attitude” toward people who may have privacy concerns. One question asks: “Are some people likely to object or find it intrusive?” A staff member writes: 'Typically, no, but there is no accounting for some people.'"

@NaraMoore Isn’t this a common attitude in general?
I’m not worried, I haven’t done anything wrong…
And then things go very very poorly historically.
Yes, I think it is very common.
We are doing this to "protect you" or more compelling "We must protect the children"
Then of course it comes back and bites people when it is "miss-used"
@NaraMoore “For the children” is such a lie, every damn time.
I use the example of Stasi. That’s what happens when you surveil people. Doesn’t get much more dystopian I think.
(It can get *worse*, like Cambodia or North Korea, but for some reason I don’t think of them as dystopias. Just more utterly horrific.)
