The only news here for me is that cartels had this capabilities on 2018...
Jfc, we cooked
The mountain of tech debt, cultural debt, and real debt this country has built up over the past few decades in service of the billionaire has allowed for a lot of insanity. Kind of feels almost intentional.
It do feel like that a lot of times tbh
These people coming to power everywhere are not opposed to cartels as much as they are to obnoxious pests talking about democracy, freedom, representation, law, justice.
So - this is not surprising. The facilities for tracking people being instituted all over the world in the last 10 (at least, in fact much more) years were from the beginning designed to accommodate for needs of what these people see as legitimate power. Including cartels.
And if there are patriotic people in such organizations as FBI, they should by now firmly understand that this shit is against their purpose. Unfortunately, various special services have always attracted people of a different kind.
