This data will be on the dark web in no time and will be mined by China shortly thereafter...

Dumb.

I'm glad I left America. Idiots are in charge of peoples lives now.

It’s not “potentially.” Trump said repeatedly during the campaign how much he admired Xi for “ruling 1.4 billion people with an iron fist.” The only mission for errand boy Musk and his tiger teams was to extract data from federal systems to deliver to Thiel’s Palantir for conflation and surveillance

Why stop at Americans?

flglchicago.bsky.social•2 days ago

They don’t. They’ve been extremely (pun intended) active in other countries

Hopefully the MAGA Kool-Aid drinkers will be the first ones entered into the database.

Not so long ago I was having on-line arguments with RWNJs about the Covid vax … remember when it was actually microchips so They / The Govt could keep us under surveillance. Yet now the MAGA cult & RWNs are 🦗🦗🦗
BtW I’ve 7 microchips in my arm - still waiting for my
5G connection.

This is scary as fuck.

1984 was just a bit premature.

A massive FOIA is warranted to see what’s up. I’m sure our screed on Blue Sky will be matched with our data. No need for the yellow Star of David. Only huge “L”’s to identify those of us who care that people have Medicaid, SNAP, and children’s lunch programs.

Peter Thiel is truly a demon. Given Trump’s homophobia, I’m very surprised he gets in the White House door. Perhaps with Musk’s gold key?

More people need to read Octavia Butler's parables works. They were eerily prescient.

Well, since the US has been spying on Americans since the days of 'W'. This isn't really news.

Remember what Paul Revere did? He sounded the alarm which initiated the BostonTea Party which was a protest on Britain’s tax on tea . The American threw all the tea into Boston Harbor that was on a British ship. More protests in the future which included

It’s all in the Big Beautiful bill - everything! Gutting and stopping the justice department as well as a measure to stop states from making laws about AI for 10 years! Not having to respond to the Supreme Court for a year! It’s a Trojan horse! It’s not a budget, it gives project 2025 free rein.

What do we do about it. At this point what do we do about anything.? Not like that sweet precious data will suddenly be liberated if democrats take over. There will be some dip shit reason any new administration will come up with for keeping the data and a whole host of idiotic rules.
