I’m not talking about my government, I’m talking about foreign ones.
Edit: also, where do you think your government gets all this information from?
What are are scared of exactly? China knowing what toilet paper you use?
I think you should be more concerned about the content they produce, not the data they get.
How about China tracking where a dissenting Chinese ex-patriate is?
Also, did you read your own fucking comment? You asked why my government needs help from corporations to sway public opinion - my response simply clarified that foreign governments do.
Just look at what Russia did in 2016 as an example.
