@ThatDude At least it's well known that mass surveillance is a thing there. Here they're trying to make it look like it's allllll fine

@Alice I'm pretty sure he has disabled those for security reasons.

@theCalcaholic yes, because the world really needs pre-commit hooks on all social networks.

The world is indeed going to shit.
Check out what's happening in China, they're building a system to rate all their citizens by keeping track of their behaviour and associations:

@SZenC Not from politicians in the Netherlands, that's for sure!

@Condor That statement assumes that the government only persecutes bad people. While this may be truw at the moment, this can change in a very short time as history teaches us.
And your data will still be available when it does. -
This kind of shit makes me realize with perfect clarity that most politicians don't know what they're talking about when it comes to technology. Heck, it makes you wonder if they're equally ill-informed about other subjects. They probably are... and that's terrifying. Politics is pretty BS if you think about it, almost never is someone in charge of a ministry so has actual field experience in matters that relate to that ministry.

Mother of god, as if the new mass surveillance law in the Netherlands wasn't bad enough, one of the politicians who likes the new law has come up with an even more redicilous idea.
an 'Internet Authority. To put it short, an authority which surveils the internet in real time and sees where all social media shit is coming from/going.
Meaning that it wouldn't just be 'targeted mass surveillance' sometimes but fulltime online monitoring.
This guy has lost his fucking mind.
