From the article:

>Mr. Paxton said in a statement. “I will continue to fight Big Tech to ensure the privacy and security of all Texans.”

It's obvious pandering to the masses. This is about Mr.Paxton trying to get some attention.

He's on the ballot next month. So of course he is.

Not a fan of mass surveillance, but my gut says this is the wrong person to fight this fight. His motives are questionable, and it shows in specifically targeting private business and not working to "ensure the privacy and security of all Texans" from government and law enforcement.

Big Tech keeps winning because we all hate our political opponents more than we hate the abuse of our privacy.

Also because people like Paxton aren't really doing their jobs.

He targeted Google, when Amazon, Facebook, etc. are doing the same. Also, less known companies like Palantir, roam free, just because they don't have the political baggage like Google do.

Worst of all, Paxton doesn't seem to have any issues with police departments having access to Nest or Ring accounts.
