how and when you know it’s a necessity

I did the math actually. And it seems like mass surveillance will only be justified if homicide rates are higher than 20% ( if 1 out of 5 people die in murder ). And only if surveillance actually stops all the crime ( which it doesn’t ) and only if there is nothing less problematic that could be used instead ( which there are plenty techniques, like normal regular investigation, where you ask people around on their own terms ). Basically the math says it isn’t justified by an apocalyptic margin.

Oh, Are you the same Blender Dumbass 2.0 ?

And only if surveillance actually stops all the crime ( which it doesn’t )

When mass surveillance works, you lose your rights, and when it doesn’t work as intended ( which as the government says to protect you from terrorists ), it gets things wrong and it can be too damaging, like when Google flagged a man who sent his child’s photos to a doctor, or when Facial recognition system gets the wrong person, or when a bank algorithm locks someone of their own account due to suspicious activity… etc

So we’re damned when it works and we’re damned when it doesn’t.

Edit: how can I do the math? Do you have any links…

I documented the math I did on this article: https://blenderdumbass.org/articles/Surveillance_Harms_1000_Times_More_Than_It_Helps.md

the answer is… it’s subjective, you just make up your own mind, and justify it with : it’s a necessity, may Allah forgive me 🥺👉👈

The answer is when you are in a death situation.

No wonder, though. It seems like you don’t even intend to learn facts about the religion you’ll believe in.

secondly, I have trouble talking to people who start discussions with personal attacks, let alone teaching them a thing or two

Then stop talking. Are you looking for trouble, clown?

edit: too bad, he chickened out of discussion.
