To be honest it's happening right now with digital keyboards and autocomplete. The only problem are those hackers who don't use phone or tablet. Normal people are pretty much covered.

So... there's been a lot of Europeans looking at America and laughing at the stuff we're going through, smug that the US is getting this.
I'm not going to say as someone from the US we don't deserve the kicking, as a country the attitude of the US has had a bad problem of exceptionalism
But this right here should be the warning to Europe not to fall into the exceptionalism trap... your oligarchs are waiting to take everything over as well. And before I get called overreacting and unconnected, this is smelling quite of the "Patriot Act" we got.
Man, if only there were some kind of list of high profile sex offenders that some world government could access to catch them. If that existed, I'm sure the people clamoring to find sex offenders would use it immediately.
You got to love conservatives and how they both use child pornography as a cudgel to attack drag queens (because they know their voters hate both drag queens and child predators) and then also protect their leaders because they know any accusation will hurt their political career.
Not sure if you're for or against such list
Not sure if I missed the joke but I'm obviously referencing the Jeffrey Epstein list. Which exists. Which powerful world leaders could get much more easily than cracking open every single civilian phone.
That is, if they were really interested in catching sex offenders and not just demolishing civil liberties.
Ooooh
The solution of the problem starts with not calling these individuals "powerful world leaders".
Some people are on the Epstein list, but you're on the denialist
Trump is already doing that. Why do so many capitulate and follow Trump? He has their browser histories.
