    Today it’s for CSAM. Tomorrow it could be for saying anything negative about dear leader. Our Constitution clearly won’t protect us.

      Not to get too pedantic, but dammit I just got off the phone with a lawyer. The constitution itself never did anything directly to the public. It outlines the powers given to and withheld from the main branches of the federal government of the US. Those branches empower the agencies that you expect to protect you. Yup, all the three letter agencies you hate.
