I’m not sure whether it could be worse.

It would be worse. They would use that access to target people.

Do you think anything is stopping them now? Why do you think these systems were built?

I mean they were built to make money, the fact that you can send them a national security letter is just a happy accident that keeps the NSA from having to run more datacenters.

Profits. Dead people don’t pay.

Yes, it’s a lot worse. The particular difference is that one of these organizations has the power to disappear you without consequence.

I know people like to hate on google, but google is actually like 3 companies in a trench coat.
They do highly valuable open source / open ecosystem work (I will say the chance of you indirectly using a google tool without knowing is over 90% now) and if the American government, a capitalist fascist government no less, gets their hands on it, we’re fucked
Not all of google is adsense or YouTube.
