why do you think privacy is dead?
Where I travel, (digital and otherwise) privacy is quite alive and well. (This is definitely outside of highly populated first-world cities.)

Which way are things trending where you are today? The cost to surveil is going down at a tremendous rate so it is just a matter of time before someone decides to pay to surveil you and then sell their insights or take advantage of them. I don't think it's possible for politicians to keep up with the rate of tech advancement. Did you ever watch a congressional hearing in the US on any technology realated subject? It's a comedic bit.

This comment could be straight out of 1870 when things were industrializing rapidly. We'll figure it out eventually. Hopefully without any serious oppression and/or bloodshed in the process.
As long as the geriatrics in Congress remain in Congress, no change will happen. We need new people so we can actually make progress.
This is nearly identical attitude of the younger generation, no matter how far we go back. :D
I _do_ agree that the US Congress could use term limits.
So because it is the same attitude it is dismissed? What’s the point of this argument?
My point is that if corporate surveillance with creepy camera technology and facial recognition is going to be rolled out everywhere (for the real safety benefits) then isn't it better for us all to spread the power out as much as possible rather than it being concentrated in the hands of a few giant entities?
The AWS effect will make sure its concentrated on a few giant entities anyway.
