Paraheliophanus

Paraheliophanus is a genus of Atlantic jumping spiders that was first described by D. J. Clark & P. L. G. Benoit in 1977.[2] The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "para" (παρά), meaning "alongside", and the salticid genus Heliophanus.[2]

gollark: Oh, and, additionally (I thought of and/or remembered this now), knowing your actions are monitored is likely to change your behavior too, and make you less likely to do controversial things, which is not very good.
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".
