I think the biggest issue is how nearly certain this is to be used on citizens as well (if it isn’t already). I think it’s pretty short hops from ‘something they don’t like posted’ -> search or confiscate phone every time you cross international border -> ???

And none of this requires probable cause or a warrant.

Yeah I mean I basically just try to convince people I know IRL and vote against anyone I can who supports/voted for this stuff. Definitely sucks but do what you can.

This, warrantless searches, patriot act shenanigans, endless other revelations and sadly no one cares

Yeah the obvious solution is to ban harvesting and storing of especially identifying data and the associated targeted ads etc but that will certainly never happen.

Yeah there usually not much you can do but hope for a change. Mine had drinking problems and was much like this. Went sober finally and he still is similar politically just not insufferable and can take a joke so it’s far more pleasant to be around him.

Good luck…

Is the predicted just average up to that time with error bars of confidence?

Yes thankfully I realized this after a bit because I could not click in and block due to crash!
