All tech is used as such. You think Apple and Microsoft and Android aren't selling your data to the government? Hmmm...
That's what I said basically. US is doing its own digital imperialism. The difference is that the US government outsourced the Orwellian surveillance to techbros.
That's just a difference in government philosophy though. China owns most endeavours in its country, the USA outsources it to private enterprise and buys it back.
Amazon literally allows police and ICE access to your Ring camera and Alexa recordings at will. They don’t even have to make a request, Amazon built an app so they can have access to any of it immediately.
At least "All popular consumer tech ..." then, because there are alternatives already.
