Considering the hellscape that is working in an Amazon warehouse I'm amazed anyone thought it was going to pass. A company that makes its employees piss in bottles doesn't give a damn about the slow erosion of American privacy rights.

No offense here, just giving my thoughts.

Americans haven’t had privacy rights in a while and while the technology is new and fancy, American citizens haven’t been as free as they think they are in a while considering PRISM, border control checks that include your fingerprints and have the right to demand access your personal devices...

So like in European countries, only that in European countries you have to give up your fingerprints when you turn 14, and it's mandatory.
