The media follows trends and advises what is popular. People are scared now, so almost all the media attention I am seeing is pro spying right now when it comes to Covid. 6 months ago, it was different. It’s not a conspiracy, it’s market incentives

That might be true or it might be confirmation bias.

I’ve seen mostly stories warning about the potential for abuse of some of the proposed solutions.

Then again it might be my own bias seeing that.

It’s probably our respective filter bubbles, which is a whole other problem
