The new changes seem to be mostly a procedural change, that does not really protect your privacy. If anything it shuffles the burden more to the private sector to be complicit in spying on its customers, which is a direct violation with most contracts you sign with a telecommunication company or social media platform. what do you think?

    from what i have read the new trade agreement furthers the states surveillance only it is world wide. I can not imagine what life will be for a person born today in 10 years. I am very sure that those of us who are alive in 20 years born from 1940 to 1970 will roll our eyes with what we have to deal with. My only question is and has been for a long time now "what is the end game"?

    Past abuse involved companies encouraging employees to contribute to particular candidates, with the reimbursement of those contributions by the company.

    The solution is to cripple all the pols by limiting the amount they can spend to a trivial amount. Eliminate some of the advantage that incumbants have, and remove one path for corruption. Then collecting information is moot, and people won't waste their assets on lying pigs in the State DemRep party.

    They usually ask that. I think it's to make sure people don't avoid disclosure or exceed the limits by giving the money to their associates to donate for them. I never thought of the fact that it could be abused. What abuses of this info can you envision?
