They shouldn't be allowed to track critics at all. No biometric data, no PII, no web monitoring etc. Unless the court decides there's a credible threat.

They will absolutely just do it anyways

We're going to need a whole agency of magnet wielders to go around erasing all this shit...

That’s the thing, once it’s out it’s never coming back, and then when it becomes accomplished fact it just gets accepted.

Start jailing ceos whose companies are found to have that data and they'll rein it in real fast.

I’m with you. Let’s eat the rich.

They've plugged all data into the cursed viewing stone that drives people insane.

That's a relief. I'm glad they stopped, because they have such respect for the law.

Glad to hear that one day DHS might be sued for keeping all this data on critics of ICE, which you and I are not. 😉
