Really thoughtful piece on surveillance overreach. The Armstrong point about cloudstored data being accessible without warrants is something I've been thinking alot about lately, especially as more services force you into cloud-only setups. Ran into something similar when helping family with healthcare records last year and the whole thing felt dystopian.

The internet, technology is great and has wonderful benefits, but not in the hands of psychotic control freaks.

Armstrong is fascinating. I'm an IT bimbo, but he monitors the world internet with his AI system and offers fascinating conclusions.

It's quite simple, enough of the collective 'we' simply decline to comply with over reach and silly policies.

The local and national health system needs a complete re-think; generally homeopathic rather than allopathic seems preferable.

I think I will stick my digital thermometer up my butt and the govy can access all the info they want.

Rather you than me!

There are 'members' of the 'govy' who might find that an appealing prospect.
