@itzpaquet @Humpleupagus @condret @ageha okay, in a previous post I did say that I believe in the inevitability of markets and money but I don't have an allegiance to it in the form you're talking about. I didn't want to defend Meta, just that the government has always had complete power to issue warrants and since the 70s compel businesses (which are chartered by the government) completely without warrants to turn over data. I appreciate your response and whenever you reply I do try to take it in good faith and learn from it as it comes from a perspective pretty different than I grew up around.
