This simply is not a conspiracy theory, we know for certain it occurs, just not the extent of exploitation; of its misuse, abuse and manipulation.

Herein are 3 liberals (former liberals, classical liberals, neo liberals?) with whom I can listen and respect. They, too, are willing to listen and to assert, to evolve a viewpoint using agreement and critique that should be more just “ “how it's done” “.
This segment was cut from a very interesting larger discussion which I would highly recommend (as well as one including Jordan Peterson and another including the 4 and Ben Shapiro… many very good minds hitting on all cylinders from different angles).
I thought this is where these 3, not at all to be considered conservatives, made very cogent points and indirectly ones we, as a society, should probably very soon address, tackle.
My questions after viewing:
1. How far should government, or corporations for that matter, be allowed to enter into our private lives?
2. Government formerly needed cause to open our mail, or further enter our property, access to phone calls… but now they have access to practically everything. Do we want this?
3. Could we even stop it if we don't so desire this encoachment?
4. What are government's proper limits?
5. Can we safeguard what is ours and truly of no business to anyone but those that we explicitly give permission?
6. How might we govern against the disinformation by our government, the planted false story?
Or is this not really a problem? Other questions that come to mind from any perspective?
