We haven't even tried to solve this any other way.

Pitting people against each other should be a last, last, last, resort.

Low trust is VERY expensive. It's asinine to introduce it to anywhere it doesn't already exist.

We have in other domains, there's a reason whistleblower protections and rewards exist.

There needs to be protections and incentives for, for example, low level employees to report their employers when they're privy to them breaking the law.

I'd argue recording people to the point of virtual stalking, selling data, building dossiers, etc is a violation of basic trust and the foundation of a low trust society.
