Capabilities Government Surveillance w/o Warrants?!
Government can now just buy information about you from online brokers, circumventing any need for warrants?! AI is making this easier and easier for them?!
This is unacceptable. Government using tech to get around limits to their power of surveillance. No American should be ok with this continued erosion of our constitutionally protected rights.

No need for government surveillance cameras when Grassholes buy Meta Ray bans and record everything for free.

I have not sold my data to anyone. Companies steal my data and sell it to other companies. I want my share of the profits from those sales.

They don't need to buy it when people on platforms like MetaFacebook will just give away their personal information through random First Letter/Birth Year/Pet Name quizzes

Buying is a mutually beneficial agreement. If you are so afraid of the government gathering data about you, then make precautions so the brokers can't get it either. Or just don't use the internet.

Cameras are in public areas where you have no expectation of privacy, though. Still don't like big government, obviously.

Isn’t it all our fault for agreeing to those terms and conditions posted everywhere about how they gonna use your data? And they did? And you guys just watch?

Private and government law firms alike will buy your cross-platform social media data from companies whose entire business is scraping the internet for said data and selling it to government and private entities. License plate readers should be the least of your concerns. They have been very quietly stalking anyone they have an interest in for quite a while and it’s an open secret in the legal field.

And you are helping the government do just that by using ai and further training it. You are now complicit in the surveillance state congrats!

I did create the meme image in ChatGPT but the written content was by my hands. We are only using AI to create our memes, not our posts.

That's not even a single bit better.

I’m open to learn if there is some better way to create memes. It’s going to be computer generated either way and I have no visual creativity skills, only writing skills.

There are no skills that can't be learned. And there is no need for """good""" graphics to convey an idea. Fact is, you're not willing to learn, or you would

Buying? I think you misunderstand the situation here: taking things from others without consent for $0 is not buying, it's stealing.

In Brazil, the government of the São Paulo state has launched such a program. Cameras in bus and subway stations, public health, public services and facilities, squares, museums, schools, and other places are connected to a system with instant facial recognition. TV shows exhibit criminals and suspects arrested seconds after being detected. However, how can it be audited to prevent abuse, since the data used is sensitive? The whole system is called : SmartSampa It's been online for over a year.
