Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a suit on Monday against Samsung, Sony, LG, TCL, and Hisense, claiming in a press release that they "have been unlawfully collecting personal data through Automated Content Recognition ("ACR”) technology."

Paxton goes on to label ACR as "an uninvited, invisible digital invader," and in one of the five separately filed suits, he calls Samsung TVs "a mass surveillance system."

Bruh every single aspect of modern life is invasive deceptive and basically unlawful. I don't want to be a part of it anymore. And from the looks of it the plan is to make this surveillance and ai lifestyle the base foundation of all that is digital, including money once it goes digital with a government run crypto. This is already dystopian. And it's like there's a civil war revolution that will inevitably happen. They already do the dirt... So we are passed that... They are already done testing technologies, and are implementing them in the process of moving from fed funded public companies to government.

The decision has been made already, everything else is theater of false choice and false democracy.

Isn't that project 2025 in a nutshell. It's happening right now. And people just stay distracted by marketed BS made to keep them distracted.

It feels evil and rapey. The government and all that I was taught was "good" feels evil and rapey.
