“…a legal doctrine from the 1970s says Americans lose their Fourth Amendment protections if they share information or records with businesses. Today, when nearly every aspect of our lives is stored and synced through digital intermediaries, the doctrine has become a gaping loophole for mass surveillance.”
This is why building privacy first and censorship resistant systems is becoming more and more important. Relying on laws that are are being reinterpreted to favour the surveillance state will result in the ultimate erosion of all privacy rights.
