	Not about this project in particular. The project is just another example of the uncritical worship of 'technology' that people engage in.

I mean, the technocratic saviours are selling this as 'good'...while ignoring that increasing surveillance is bad. If they are really concerned about state power they would be careful to not play into the state's hands.
