Sorry, I’m not chilled at all by the prospect that the court can subpoena my data from Goole. It can already issue a warrant to arrest me, and to search my actual home.
- avidiax 5mo agoThe trouble is that you aren't chilled at all today. Tomorrow's government may decide that attending certain protests, or having "associated" with certain people was always a crime. It doesn't even need to be "retroactive", since enforcement and interpretation of the law is always adjustable in the present. This sort of thing is happening today in certain countries. Why are you so sure it won't happen to you in yours?
- amanaplanacanal 5mo agoIt kind of sounds like you are saying you don't care if other people are hurt, as long as it doesn't impact you. I hope that isn't what you actually mean.
- Planktonne 5mo agoThat's not a good faith, or even vaguely accurate, reading of the parent comment.
- amanaplanacanal 5mo agoI'm not sure how else to read this: Most people are like me: they don't care about being protected from the courts, because the courts don't pose risk to them, and as a matter of statistical fact, they are correct.
