Over the last century, the Land of the Free has slowly transformed into a land governed by endless laws, largely by cracking down on vices instead of actual crimes, creating a society that would render us all criminals if our behavior were constantly observed. Meanwhile, the state has steadily expanded its use of mass surveillance, largely under the pretext of fighting “terror.”
This is a toxic mixture.
Lmao, checks out that you’re just welcoming in the surveillance stare with open arms
My car company is not a part of the state, and I am cheap ass. I am a good driver and I want my insurance rates to reflect that.
I get good insurance rates, and I told them to stuff it when they “offered” to spy on me wherever i go.
And lmao that you actually think “good driving” and “driving favored by insurance actuaries” are even remotely the same.
I never said they are the same. But there is enough overlap to get me a decent discount.
Unless you just had your rates in the absolute shitter beforehand, you have very low standards for what a decent discount is, especially when you consider that you’re normalizing them taking an overwhelming amount of data about you to create future insurance profiles for everyone.
Oh no!
