gollark: i.e. demonstrate that they can actually function well, enforce the law reasonably, have reasonable laws *to* enforce in the first place, with available resources/data, **before** invading everyone's privacy with the insistence that they will totally make everyone safer.
gollark: Reduced privacy in return for more safety and stuff might be better if governments had a track record of, well, actually doing that sort of thing effectively.
gollark: I... see.
gollark: Invading people's privacy a lot allows you to get somewhat closer to "perfect enforcement".
gollark: Anyway, broadly speaking, governments *cannot* perfectly enforce their laws, and this is part of the reason they work generally somewhat okay. If they could *immediately* go from "government doesn't/does think you could do X" to "you can no longer do/not do X without punishment", we would likely have significantly less fair institutions.
