    A lesser violation of privacy is still a violation of privacy. “It could be worse” isn’t a particularly persuasive argument

      Yeah, I also wouldn’t like that kind of argument. My point there was that I don’t know if the implementation actually is not violating privacy.

        Fair point. Sorry if I misread it

        I’m reminded almost daily of someone saying during the Cheney Administration “1984 was a warning, not a handbook!”
