I dunno. The current state of the world might be making me more conspiracy-minded, but this feels like it was always part of the plan.
Introduce surveillance tech that Peter Thiel can use to spy/sell/whatever, announce that you’re using it, expecting people to get angry, and now in the 11th hour, after harvesting all the data they get to announce “we’re removing the evil software! We’re the good guys again!”
I recognize that the current state of affairs is having me see demons everywhere, but I just can’t bring myself to give discord a pat on the back.
It’s worse than that. They’ve said what they want to do and they want to get rid of democracy in place of a technocracy surveillance state.
