I'm confused, I thought this was about the UK, and the US only got brought up in the sense of people wanting to copy them?

If going on tangents is a problem, start with the person I was responding to.
My comment on social media as the #1 catalyst of societal disassembly applies to the UK as well as the US.
What tangent? pjc50 was responding fairly directly to points in the comment he replied to. Who was in turn replying directly to his comment. Which was a direct reply to the next parent up. Which was expressing surprise to immigration being present at all in a root level response to a story about UK use of VPNs.
Veen made a comment about US ICE suggesting that political positions limiting immigration are a backdoor to human rights violations as a matter of fact, and suggesting that immigration has nothing to do with the push for more surveillance.
My comment was responding to that and to pjc50's reply.
