Exactly, "AI" just lifted everyone's data and privacy without a single objection from the larger "governmental" or law structures. The same ones the behemoths lobby to unjustly ("through law") manipulate and charge you for doing X, considering Y, or attempting Z.
It's pretty clear at this point that little of this matters. It's basically the time old "principled" guy that is just a sucker. It turns out in life that one should treat humans in his interaction with them as is right and just. But even that can be contextual and situational (lying obviously isn't always wrong). When it comes to public spheres and nation states, it's an entirely different ball of wax, typically bigger picture entities vs. one another, not an individual somehow acting like he is, or can change, a country. A good example is acting like murder on an individual level is akin to fighting in wars. And even in those there is self defense, pre-emptive actions, etc.
It's an interesting thing that modern people don't really talk about many of the classically masculine realities of life, like leadership, war, women's roles, etc. We've gone far too soft and hippie Jesus pacifist, from what I see.
