If you’re up for SCOTUS then yeah all your shit is gonna get dredged up. Welcome to the future.
Kavanaugh stands to be the most anti-privacy justice on the bench. His view of the 4th is as warped as his view of the 1st. He’s most likely to rule in favor of a Citizens United-type decision for Silicon Valley, ruling that business surveillance is protected commercial speech.
It’s hard to imagine a future where Kavanaugh is confirmed and we don’t find ourselves, a decade later, in some fucked up dystopia.
Consider that today’s adtech, if subpoenaed, would be able to corroborate the crimes and/or alibis at stake on the Kavanaugh confirmation scandal. In the 80s, teens weren’t carrying devices tracing their GPS history to a pseudonymous advertising ID. Today, future SCOTUS teens do.
Perhaps counter-intuitively, Republicans need to rethink their own deference to “commercial surveillance” to keep business deregulated. That stance will ensure a privacy-absent future where unscrupulous young people will be easily disqualified from public office and appointments.
So apparently everything is insane and yes humans are crazy.
