Then you have the snowden revelations, the nsa was filtering down notes on peoples’ files on the LEIN, law enforcement information network, that is what police are running on those laptops in their vehicles. Like, fuck with his person notes and I don’t know what else.
Then the fancy electronics they have to intercept communications, they use spyware contractors, even the fucking nso group might be getting in on it, with their pegasus type zero click exploits that entirely corrupt phones and computers, recording audio, visual, even when off, seeing everything people do. That is where we are heading. Biden froze them out but you can bet that israeli company got the green light from prez now.
