RE: Theories of phone spying
This constant surveillance is perhaps useful in a world full of criminals. But it's as if the world itself, the system itself, creates more and more criminals who become such in order to survive. And then this same system introduces global surveillance of everyone, excusing it with the dangers it itself has created...
If surveillance methods are only involved in cases of searching for dangerous criminals (I also watch the series FBI), then fine. But I can't agree to individual companies, or perhaps the countries behind them, just appropriating your stuff and telling you: if you want it back, you have to do this and that. This is tantamount to blackmail to some extent. Because in the end I may, as in my case, never be able to get my data back, and even if I do, they have access to it again, storing it in their cloud, from where it may never be able to be deleted.
I don't even go so far as to question whether they are corrupt. The mere fact that they do so is enough.
Agreed as everything falls
