After 2,977 victims were killed in September 11, 2001 the patriot act was passed, that allowed unprecedented surveillance of US citizens, including the tapping of domestic phones. There was some grumbling but overall the reaction to increased checks, the requirement to show papers to travel, and accessing of personal communications by the government was accepted given the risk.

After 718,000 victims were killed in the US from the covid pandemic, people seem to be objecting to wearing masks when they go out.

The long term effect of mask wearing is that facial recognition software is less reliable. The requirement is less laborious than putting on other clothes. But these people don't object to having to put their dick inside their pants when they go out ... do they?

What's the real issue here, because surely we can agree that this "freedom" thing makes no fucking sense.
