DemocraSEE 👁

[@tonyhelton2788]

It was not a myth. It was a demonstration of how a Democracy works. Unlike a Republic that protects an individuals privacy, a Democracy is when the Collective Majority attack individuals who disagree with their spying and Assange was just a perfect example of someone who reveals their agenda and how they will attack, attack, attack anyone who warns others of the determental totalitarian agenda of those who believe in Democracy where 51% of people can rule the other 49% and the individual who disagree will be attacked and sacrificed under the false premise that it is for the good of the majority or the 51%. Unlike a Constitutional REPUBLIC that defends and protects the individual and their right as in the BILL OF RIGHTS which the founders knew must be protected. All Democracies in history have turned into Totalitarian regimes that eliminate their opponents. Like they are trying to do to President Trump by turning the full force of the entire government, ran by the Democrat Party, against him and everyone that agrees with him. The greatest threat to our Constitutional REPUBLIC is those calling for the protection of a Democracy!

[@federalreservewolflegend3523]

I own 7 acres of woods, so I took my new puppy Taco for walks on the flat snowmobile trail behind my land. One day I got a call from the guy who owns the "open to public" (5 months of the year anyway) that he didnt want me walking my puppy "on his land" which I thought was HIGHLY petty, but I started walking my dog on the dead end road that is ALSO behind my house. THAT neighbor ALSO took beef with me walking my dog on the 100% public road. (They BOTH had trail cams apparently. And the one snitched me out to the other. Then this other one pulled the same crap, despite it being a 100% public road.) So I began walking the puppy dog 5 minutes from my own dang home on a nearby road. And one day I came home from work at 10:30pm. Kept checking on him, had a cig, and as soon as the cig was done, I got up to check on him again and let him in. I heard the THUD out in the road out front my house. It was 10:40 and my dog was now dead because he got USED to walking on roads due to the spying neighbors forcing me to walk the dog on roads. And that is the way he went. Right down the driveway. Now you may blame me for not having my dog on a rope, but you must understand how rural I am. At that time of night, it was RARE for ANY car to be on the road out front at that time of night. Yet, my dog found the one car coming and was killed. I blame it on the spying. Had the other neighbor JUST let me walk the dog on that trail, he would have went towards the WOODS, not the road that night. So, now I walk the 2 remaining dogs on the Ice Age trail ten minutes away. If they head anywhere on that side of house where a road is, I yell and chase them towards the woods. But I lost a dog due to spying. Then the FOOL had the balls to call and make an offer on my house. I lost my mind over the phone.

good peice, thanks for sharing. Lets all remember that this goes so much futher and wider than just the US though, this is a global problem. Now imagine this on top of living in a legitimately authoritarian state, how would you even sleep at night.

Americans have never had full privacy since the telephone was available to everyone... The federal government has always been listening to our conversations....

The simple act of accumulating data makes it vulnerable.. like no one cares about cameras on the highway until you tell them americas enemies can all see when your sitting in rush hour

[@godcurse9835]

My big thing about it is, why can't our data be reasonably anonymized in a way that still generates profits through advertisements and such in a way that still enables the government to have access to reasonable information under reasonable conditions. At no point was it necessary to completely abandon all privacy and sanctity to all modern peoples on earth in order for there to be generated massive profits via data collection and advertisements and such, nor to solve actual crimes like completely random serial killings and such. Instead it seems all of us can be violated freely and it's basically considered entertainment to those who have the ability, most specifically in the tech sector, of which there aren't generally comprehensive systems in place to hold those people accountable, of which is also more easily hacked and stolen by criminals, if criminals had to hack the government to access our personal and non-anonymized data our privacy would be infinitely more protected.
