Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU.

  Telling someone who says government access will be used to spy on citizens but will be useless for combating serious crime that they want telescreens doesn’t make any sense. Either you don’t know what a telescreen is, you have poor reading comprehension, or you’re a fairly clever troll. Maybe some of all the above.

    I’m telling someone who says that a want for uncompromising privacy is a US thing that it’s not, and that these compromises they speak of would be akin to telescreens if applied to a non-digital situation.

      But their comment doesn’t say or suggest that.

      and that these compromises they speak of would be akin to telescreens if applied to a non-digital situation.

      And they don’t say anything about the compromises except that they’d be used for spying on citizenry.

      This isn’t my fight, I saw you were confused and thought I’d help. My mistake, you really are one of those double down or die types.
