CALPERS and other giant employee retirement funds need to start making noises about dumping Telco stocks if network neutrality is killed. It's a kleptocracy and that's the only defense real people now have.
Why wouldn't she and her pimps love it? Yet again, monopolistic corporations will be given valuable infrastructure to hoard for their own (and rent seek), all ENTIRELY on the taxpayers' dime.
Now, Officer John Law will have a trove of DNA samples to synthesize and contaminate any evidence in the unlocked property room that will 'solve' any stone-cold whodunnit! Get rid of every pesky minority in their fine Apartheid Red communities because DNA evidence to corn-pone mouth-breathing juries is the word of God writ large.
Keep in mind the LEO community of every stripe (pastry?) came out overwhelmingly for Trump. Hell, the goons in US Customs and Border Protection (CPB) were *actively* ignoring Federal judge court orders banning Bannon's XO.
Plenty of US Blue Shirts champing at the bit to be Il Trumpe's brown shirts. Psychotic high school bullies don't change: they just become cops.
Years ago, the Right Wing realized the US has waaay more people than they needed (those needs only being cord wood troopers for lucrative Endless War (TM), former Seal Team 6 security goons, and only the top-shelf prostitutes and rent boys). So short of rolling the cattle trucks and firing up the ovens, how best to get rid of all these useless people?
The total destruction of any type of governmental safety net. Cut most and privatize the rest (just like they are with jails and prisons), and all those un-needed proles will stop dropping like flies. First the aged, then the disabled, and most of the poor (with of a carve-out for the true believer white ones).
Donald's daily circus shit-show is merely distraction from the real agenda of Ayn Rand devotees like Ryan.
This is akin to socialism, which works very well... when everyone is from the same Tribe and are related going back 15 generations.
But it all falls apart when the neighbors are the wrong color, or religion, or accent, or we don't have the same great-great-great-great-great grandfather.
There is no evidence that Trump or the GOP are doing any of this. Furthermore, the only possible use of an app like Confide would be for purpose (1), but that is something government officials can already achieve simply by making a phone call or meeting in person.
The day after his party killed the one federal agency tasked with ensuring voting machine security.
The folks with all the money realized a few decades ago: there's just too many people (as other than prostitutes and bodyguards, we don't need them anymore due to off-shoring, computerization and automation).
But rolling the cattle trucks is a bit too on the nose, so let's go with Permanent War, sugar-based industrialized food, set them at each others' throats with race and religion-based hatreds, choke-off competent and well-funded primary education, and what the hell, add in the idea that vaccines are a bad idea.

Real time tracking of every financial transaction of your life. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?
Move to that Utopian paradise where the citizens' never have to fret about terrorist attacks.
North Korea.

Drones wearing MAGA gimmie caps delivering boxes of hollow points to drunk yokels hunting minorities.
Try not to get too much blood on the victims' phone; it will degrade the signal.
Mooslims must fly nekkid.
Just like Dick Cheney, we'll never be free from assholes like Peter Thiel.

Total race-baiting, dog-whistle propaganda is labeled 'Disputed'?
Cowardly.

Trump still allowed to have account to shout 'burn the theater down' to his brownshirt deplorables?
Then all this Kabuki bullshit is meaningless.
I can already hear President Bannon asking, "Hey, can that be modified to just wipe out the mud people?"

Monsters and the monsters that defend them.

Patents for outsourcing and hiding profits, mostly.
"NEVER ask for permission. Ask for foregivness, AFTER you've accomplished what you wanted."
As long as you don't let your employees off for MLK Day, you can do whatever you want, Uber. It's Alabama but with more heat and hate.
Coming soon to a puritanical former democracy near you.
Zero benefits, no health insurance, and like everyone else in Trump's America (other than Trump), they'll be working every Saturday for straight pay.
Just like my local grocery store - part of a very large national chain - everyone is part time, except the manager. #MAGA
Where everything new is Windows again.
Big Oil, or they'll buy up all the...
Whoops. Standard Oil 2.0 (with the Trump Stamp of Approval).
