It's interesting how this isn't a left-right issue. Both the more populist left and the more populist right oppose this, it originates from our elderly-home technocrats whom are clinging to power, like von der Leyen.

IMO, saying it originates from elderly-home technocrats really downplays the role of lobbyists who want to peddle their surveillance tech. In this case, Ashton Kutcher.

Except the intel community doesn't need a law. Nice to have maybe. But if you think those are people who let little things like laws stop them from doing what they believe they need to do, you're being a bit naive.

One thing is to do little things and hide, another is to have the backdoors to everyone handed to you for your dragnet needs.
