People are starting to realise that the biggest survilliance state in the world is the US.
And they want you to think it's China or Russia to deflect attention.
It's all three of them.
I think it's still actually the UK. Just in terms of cameras.
US sucks but there are more cameras per person elsewhere, more restrictions elsewhere. I think they are sinister and depraved but likely just like the rest, not worst.
