ICE? DOJ? Hello?
Wouldn't having an adversarial country to be spying on you be the better option for you personally? At least privacy wise, not using your machine as some infiltration point, as the country you reside in has many more opportunities to abuse the data
Like US saying EU is its adversary and spying on it? Trump had been pretty clear that he sees EU as a threat while China and Russia is not.
And don’t forget that ICE sees both non-citizens and citizens as the enemy if they don’t agree with Trump.
Yes, in the headlines the agencies playing adversaries to the common folk are definitely mainly chinese... /s
As someone from the EU, could I not use the argument to argue that for me it's both an adversarial country?
