Politicians do do this in the open and that’s a problem. The bigger issue, I think, is that it doesn’t even occur to the general public, like,”Wait, this is weird.” Again, it goes back to Facebook etc and people just willingly posting their entire lives online, for anybody to see. They’re so used to that that when governments institute more and more mass surveillance techniques, they just accept it. They don’t even think about it, really. If they do think about it at all, it’s a sort of,”Oh, well I’ve been doing that myself for years, so no big deal..” train-of-thought.

I admit that I post every single one of my grows online, on one specific weed-growing website, for two reasons. One: there isn’t enough info about a lot of the cannabis strains that people are growing these days. That information needs to be out there for people who grow their own weed. And two: I’m kind of like,”Yeah, what’re you gonna do about this, government?” haha! I just assume that everything I post or text to someone, every single phone call I make and whatever else is being observed. I’m not okay with it at all, but what’s the solution, really? My solution is to throw shit in their faces, just to see what might happen. I don’t think anything’ll happen, really. I’m not breaking (too many) laws, but I like to let them know that, yes, fuck you, I see you. And I don’t give a shit.
