The military industrial complex will not stop until it’s completely destroyed. Eisenhower tried to warn us against it over a half century ago, but it fell on deaf ears. The “defense” spending is almost completely allocated to “offense”. The US won’t even defend it’s southern border. Anyone can invade the country from the south, while the military is spending billions of dollars and spreading troops all over the world. It’s like driving a tank into the city and destroying buildings to “protect your house”, but leaving your house unlocked and the gate open.

It’s not just in the UK. If you live in the US, you can find out if your city is using Facial Recognition by going to https://atlasofsurveillance.org/. There are a lot of cities using it.

There’s little difference between placing children in front of a school thats targeted to be bombed, and taking away citizens’ freedom to “protect the children”. They don’t care about the children. They are just using them to further their objectives.

California collected $93 million more in taxes. Google paid a small price for it’s $280 billion ad revenue. The people who had their privacy violated got their privacy violated.

Who won in this scenario?
