"In addition to Ton-That, Clearview was founded by Richard Schwartz — who was an aide to Rudy Giuliani when he was mayor of New York — and backed financially by Peter Thiel, a venture capitalist behind Facebook and Palantir."
Folks laughed at me when I told them that the State can track them always and everywhere.
They no longer laugh at me.
I've never had a cell phone and don't see any reason to have one. I also have never used social media and can't imagine why people waster their time on them. Of more concern is the license plate readers which police are installing everywhere, the GPS systems in cars, and the black boxes in cars. But today's ditsy youngsters don't care about their privacy--which is why they put devices like Alexa in their homes to listen to all their conversations. And don't believe the lies that these devices only turn on if you address them. I was in someone's home who had an Alexa and three times the machine talked to us and no one had addressed it--it was listening all the time. Will the sheeple wake up and demand their privacy back? Not likely--the airheads are too busy taking selfies and preening themselves on social media. And many of them will vote away their freedom in hopes of getting all the free stuff the socialists promise them.
