How does federating two public instances enable spying

[-] maegul@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago

Well it was reflexive choice I think. American anti government sentiment without thinking through whether the instance or government department in question was providing a service that some would benefit from on the fediverse.

America has a lot of problems right now leading to exceptionally low trust in government, even for them.

We're afraid of all government spying, including our own. I just think most Americans don't really understand that other governments, especially in the EU, have significantly better privacy laws and protections for foreigners than America has for its own citizens.

Unfortunately there are people in the EU continously pushing for mass surveilance laws
