alt Hacker NewsBut does the majority want that change? If they want it, are they entirely aware of its potential impact on their freedom of speech and access to information? Or were they conditioned to think it's good for them because well funded corporate entities and governments spend money on promoting that image? Democracy does not work when majority is stupid and uneducated because people like that are easily controlled. I wish we were putting as much resources into education as we're putting into cheap entertainment and ads/marketing.

>But does the majority want that change
This really depends on 1) How you frame the problem/solution and 2) what subset of people you ask.
But to answer your question, I could easily see that yes, people want a "change" based on how you frame the problem.
The vast majority wants a parental control setting on the kid's device, and that's what is being imposed in California and Colorado right now.
The vast majority don't want to upload their passports. That's what we should be opposing. Standardized parental controls set by the device owner are a great alternative and not invasive at all.
