FTC urged to probe Apple, Google for enabling ‘intense system of surveillance’

JDPower666

I am totally against this absurd abortion ban, and the amount of tracking by Google etc, but if a law is broken it should be followed up like any other law, the suggestion appears to be this law should have barriers placed in the way of carrying it out. The issue is not the abortion ban but the invasive tracking and law enforcement's use of that, and I suspect that won't be addressed. What will probably happen is the tech companies will decide to obscure and/or not hand over any data gathered near abortion clinic locations. And then we are going down a track of tech companies having an undue influence on what laws are prosecutable and which are not. Do we really want the same companies that track us every hour of every day deciding what law breakers they will provide evidence against and which ones they will protect?
