sr you host that didn't work and can karen political holzer around
second amendment protections or fanatical interpretations of second and
third uh... protections as related to
to gun rights obviously in the kind of political constituency of the gun lobby
obverse as our willingness to kind of continually a road and rollback
fourth amendment protections which is exactly what these disclosures have kind
of highlight in over the past couple of days and you say that they're isn't that
kind of similar
uh... corporate constituency
uh... that's interested in those types of protections uh... and and you know
that makes a lot of sense in this morning if you count of elaborate on
that
well she will you know the uh... though
for a big
manufacturers of pistols of handguns
uh... clocks and so forth
and i've been there a limited number of manufacturers of assault weapons
and they're making millions off of this stuff
and so whenever we have these schools
shootings are a massacre zc uh... carried out
and they can only be carried out a you know i'm best level with with those
kinds of uh... uh... semiautomatic weapons
uh... whenever there's a public debate about whether something could be done
about this or should be done about this and we we week we have thirty thousand
gun deaths
uh... by your account suicides
uh... *** shutdown and when we saw a recently that uh... even a
democratically controlled senate could he could and even report out
uh... in a kind of reform on this issue and that's because
while politicians get elected by campaign contributions from corporations
and uh...
and uh... there are a lobbyist like the national rifle association that act as
pastor for these huge uh...
arms manufacturers so they just shut down the debate on this because they
have a very strong interest in a fundamentalist and and some what do you
know if a historical and weird interpretation of the
uh... the second amendment that uh...
everybody has a right to are semi automatic weapons and and and huge
ammunition roles attached
uh... but uh... with regard to the fourth amendment which forbids the
government to search through our personal effects and papers
uh... to come on our property without
a warrant from a charge and without a very narrow specification of what
exactly they're looking for and what is the reason for which they suspect other
criminal act as being committed
uh... with regard to the fourth amendment there's no there's been no
effective push back at all from the corporations
uh...
uh... in congress uh... with regard to lobbying and so forth on preserving
those rights that there's no way that makes money off of
uh... preventing intrusions into our personal privacy
well i mean it's and it seems quite the contrary in fact there's a lot money to
be
made in pretty intrusive uh... data mining
uh... and other technologies
sort of violate our privacy and pre regular basis than what we've seen here
uh... is this kind of parallel between maybe some of the mourn crunching habits
of some silicon valley firms
uh... and then what uh...
the an essay
uh... has been doing and i've honestly that's kind of highlighted in this prism
program
you did
did the same two parts of this that i kind of want to get to one is that i i i
i think it
relates very directly to the kind of corporate component because the the
firms the silicon valley firms have denied
not very
the it sounds blunt but actually she kind of read it it's a very
parsed denial of having a role in these programs uh... in terms of uh... giving
and it's a direct access to their servers others you know the other
possibilities of the n_s_a_ *** uh... drew rectly
for uh...
uh... for access in their granted on on a particular god basis or with specific
requests like with the phone records
or of the other possibilities of the kind of being filtered the rule
uh... authored party
but i guess
curious for you about is
is this kind of disparity between
the kind of expansion of government overreach and then and then the kind of
extrema limits that were also placing on ourselves are both in our private and
public lives we interact with these companies war when were are being
monitored by the government that how that sort of parallels playing out
yes
uh... the uh... the internet companies some of them have
uh... aspirations of
developing a kind of uh... uh...
uh... hologram of each of us
that they would know all of our
likes and dislike sorry our location uh... at one point the head of google
wanted to to have it be such that if you go if you are out of town you were
visiting another city that google could tell you where your favorite restaurant
was probably envelope which uh... we'll put some of my house might like to go to
and so for that uh... in order to commercialize the internet they would
like to have total information awareness about their customers just as the u_s_
government would like to have total information awareness about uh... it's
uh... it's citizens and unarmed
a list of those two things work together in fact one justifies the other sold
very often
uh... national security agency or c_i_a_ or other officials window when pressed
on government religions into our electronic privacy was they will will
will we give away to that information quite friendly to to jeff zucker burger
to to google also why would we mind so much of this pyramid also gets a right
and i think i think that that that the
the sort of notion as well that this continent proaches has been at the
trailhead
uh... by president
obon le of kind of
his affinity for geek culture or a technology technology industry in fact
it hasn't been at the trails actually run as you say quite parallel to the
policies of these companies
