    Do I get to stress because my TV is selling summaries of my living room conversations to the GOP?

    Do I get to stress because climate change has moved tornado alley into my county at the same time we’re destroying our ability to predict the weather?

      Why did you buy a trojan horse in the first place?

      I mean…no? Just be ready for it. Make sure your basement is ok, you got food and water reserves. Imagine stressing all your life about possible tornato hitting your location. Probably would live by 20 years less. I’m living under an threat of invasion by a much larger power, and even I don’t stress about that. Got bags ready and set to jump ship if something happens.

        Don’t be intentionally obtuse about the TV. People buy what’s available. Yes, there are edge cases, and no it’s not the argument you think it is to assume everyone has the foreknowledge, means, and wherewithal to employ one of those edge cases.
        The U.S. government does not offer its citizens a right to privacy against corporate surveillance, and that is not something you can blame on the average person.
