    You mean those social networks full of your pictures, coupled with your profile info such as name and maybe date of birth? Sure bud

      Yeah I mean the one good thing we can agree on about social media is that it’s a perfect record, no one lies and all the information uploaded to it is so truthful that you can basically treat it as a complete record. Imagine, if the opposite were true, people could engage with social media without having to provide any information they didn’t want to. Not even going to get in to the pros and cons of this. But it all comes down to penalising those who engage in good faith. Don’t forget, we have a wildly impractical law om the book that allows our government to compel any citizen who works for one of these large companies to install back doors into the system with a potential stay at a Federal prison for any objection or disclosure. The groundwork has been getting laid for a long time on this project.
