How is this not a violation of GDPR?! “Homeland Security” doesn’t need the data, this is thousands of people for under 5 possible threats at most… this is fucking stupid! The game of bribery and backdoor deals of monetizing data keeps spreading, huh?
The only thing that makes the EU bureaucracy seem like it’s functional are competing national interests. When all nations are being targeted by foreign automated propaganda through their social networks to promote shifts in their governments to allow this sort of bull, it doesn’t even matter that the US is directly issuing threats against the EU, only just what corrupt long time career politicians can get out of it.

Did we win WWII? Did we lead tech for years and years? WHAT HAPPENED? Why USA so friggin exposed to social media equivalent of script kiddies (no, worse/dumber). Like SERIOUSLY we still have some of the best bombs and while we were spending billions developing those WE IGNORED THE FUCKING INTERNET?!
(Yes I would work to make this better, have some small skills here, but don’t understand how we missed an INTERNET sized risk)
It’s not just foreign. Internal capitalists also wish to destabilize nation states. There’s a popular fad among the global bourgeois to believe that humanity should be sliced into corporate fiefdoms with zero state control. There’s another popular bourgeois fad which is to believe that humanity’s population must be brought radically lower to reduce the risk to themselves from large numbers of people angry at being dispossessed by climate change and AI.
These two fads combined are personified in people like Trump, Musk, Bezos, Thiel, Zuckerberg, etc, and they are extremely dangerous to our species.
Surveillance capitalism will continue the fascist takeover until the whole planet is a totalitarian company town and we are all slaves to big brother; paying a daily subscription to breathe.
Uh? It’s a bit less generic than that… some activities of governments are excluded from the scope but not all data processing from government agencies are.
For example this particular personal data processing likely fits under the prevention of criminal offences and threats to public security and is highly unfortunate but let’s keep shit factual.

Government is excluded from meeting GDPR requirements. ☺️
Well that’s a real kick in the nuts.
Surveillance capitalism will continue the fascist takeover until the whole planet is a totalitarian company town and we are all slaves to big brother; paying a daily subscription to breathe.
I’m not even joking.
I mean we were saying this in the early 90s too but. Yeah.
Yes I called it too.
So you’re saying we’ll live in locations owned by the state, paying money issued by the state, and if we fail to pay armed thugs will lock us up?

Because our governments treat fascists in good faith, foreign or domestic.
