That's great. Now that you have all the infrastructure in place the next request by the government will be a felon flag. You already have everything there, what's the big deal?

Certainly we can take almost any topic through to the most extreme possible next steps and arrive at a draconian place, but I don't find that exercise realistic or productive.

    Go back to 1996 and tell someone that in 30 years the government will be legally able to look at everything they have written, taken pictures of, or recorded in the last 5 years in private and it use to retroactively punish them for any crime.

    This is the law for cellphones and computers for anyone who lives within 100 miles of an ocean, border or airport.

    The most draconian possible next steps we can imagine are far too Utopian for the world we live in.
