  Yours sounds like a fallacy fallacy. Pointing out a logical error doesn’t mean the conclusion is inherently wrong.

  No, it’s a slippery slope argument. It’s a fallacy if and only if the claim in unlikely to follow from the initial argument.

  I’m demonstrating two examples of privacy-violating policy from California, where the excuse is to help in policing. If they can tie in policing to porn/social media, I think they’ll do it. So yes, it’s a slippery slope argument, but I don’t think it’s a fallacy.
