    • it's an oxymoron isn't it? or at least an obvious contradiction... if the government can access private data, by definition, that data is no longer private, therefore they are no accessing private data... it's a circular logical situation like a snake eating it's tail... what we need and are getting close to, are secure blockchain mechanisms, that CONNECT to user controlled data as required, and do NOT COLLECT it, into insecure and unsecured servers... there are risks with blockchain, we must prevent it from becoming an Eastern-BlocChain-Gang... it's a system, it has benefits, it has risks...

I was never asked in a referendum if my country should join NATO, yet our pro-american government did it. Same scenario in most Eastern European countries.
