If I survey where my children are, by for example using an app which I insist they have on their phone, that is not punishment. It is guardianship.
I’m afraid that I for one just don’t get the widespread terror of “surveillance“ by elected governments who can be de-elected.
It also didn't require sending the ID of *everybody* in the park to unregulated corporations around the world.
Social media needs content & algorithm regulations + forced interoperability.
Surveilling and policing users is the opposite of safety; it's punishing the dog for the owner's negligence.
