gollark: Except the dictator(s).
gollark: I find it hard to assume that any government actually has a coherent plan in mind, but somehow it seems to me unlikely that this sort of system of "let's monitor everything everyone says and does and have no transparency about it" is actually for anyone else's good.
gollark: i.e. "put security holes in your products but they're not actually allowed to be 'systemic weaknesses' and also you're not allowed to tell anyone".
gollark: No, they passed that stupid "Assistance and Access" law.
