One major downside of advancements in computer technology is that our now-enormous ability to capture, store and process huge amounts of data is beginning to allow governments to surveil and restrict the freedoms of their citizens.
China now collects megabytes of data on each of all its 1.4 billion citizens and composes a “citizenship score” that determines the freedoms that each resident is allowed to exercise: travel, luxuries, number of children, medical services, etc. China is also moving quickly toward its own digital currency to the exclusion of free-market ones … clearly to incorporate financial transactions into this big-data capture sweep.
No slouch the American left, they too are jumping on this surveillance potentiometer. The left, as part of its “Build Back Better” agenda want a huge expansion of our IRS coupled with the requirement for all financial institutions to report all transactions of $600 dollars or higher.
I can only compare these onorous attacks on individual freedoms to how farmers carefully manage the schedules, feedings and environments of their milking-cow herds in order to maximize production and profits.
It will not be too many years until China and then, America will turn full-on bovine … all facilitated by big-data technology.
STAND UP FOR FREEDOM!

Not to mention Pennsylvania Republicans trying to access private information of voters!

It would be helpful if you follow up this accusation with a reference. (Or I will classify you too as a sniper like DEN.)

Seems to me that this information already exists within the PA administration … and the legislative branch, which is Constitutionally responsible to guarantee elections, would just like to see if the last one was properly carried out. They do have oversight responsibility after all. This does not seem to be directed at subverting any voter rights. But don’t worry JB, the PA Supreme Court will squash things … probably on the grounds of “[fake] voter suppression.”

There have already been several audits and investigations regarding the election certifying that they were valid and without fraud. This is an attempt to justify “the big lie”. Time to stop the craziness.

Too often true: Whenever the media tells us we can’t do something … it means that we should do something.
