But these proposed laws mean that the government will have the monopoly on civil liberty violations.
Commercial businesses will not be able to exploit you.

Cool, but our governments have passed some of the absolute worst privacy laws in the world so this means basically nothing.
Our ISPs are forced to log all the metadata about everything you do on your internet service, and the government can basically just request it for any reason they desire.

Federal law enforcement agencies can request app Devs put backdoors into their apps, so the cops can steal data. What’s more, the Devs aren’t allowed to tell anyone that they have done so.

Yep, and that makes literally no sense as any code I do has to go through a peer review and be checked off by 2 other devs, who would catch the back door. Our government has no idea how technology works.
