Not sure how that's super relevant here? "my data could be used to accuse me of a crime" is a threat of physical harm anyway, unless you define being arrested as safe.

And I don't really think public opinion has shifted on that part. You could argue about emotional comfort or something, maybe.

Being arrested by a “public safety officer” is not safe at all.

  • You could probably find 10 separate videos of "public safety officers" assaulting innocent people by shooting them with rubber bullets for no discernible reason or by trampling them with horses (also for no discernible reason), and that's only from the last 2 days.

    • Ok, antifa, but there are over 10 million arrests in the US every year. Video is not in the same league of societal influence.
