    God, Lemmings are such a bunch of fucking hypocrites. Loudly advocating for privacy and huge, faceless, multibillion-dollar corporations not being able to sell personal information to governments out one side of their ass, all while upvoting bullshit like this to high heaven and sucking off government surveillance in the comments out the other.

    News flash: giving governments access to megacorps’ personal data doesn’t mean they’ll only use that data in the tiny number of ways that you agree with, or only against the people you don’t like!

    Edit for context: the other top comment was getting hammered with downvotes when I posted this.

      Many - myself included - will upvote messed up or unpleasant or concerning stuff because we feel it should be discussed, and discussion tends to correlate with visibility.

      Upvote != agree in a ton of cases. Reddit worked (works? Haven’t been on in a few years actually) the same way.
