Idk fam, if someone has to take my data, I'd much rather it be the EU than corpos. Of course, I'd prefer nobody take it, but it is what it is.

Wow.. that's bad, that's really bad

Stage 2 will be compell data holders to share it with government on a per need basis. Basically creating a huge database of data available at all times for the government. Pair it with a centralized oauth instance and voilĂ , you have the big brother always watching you
