    Shit.

    This could work. “We only scan your shit with your permission” might placate enough people for them to not realise that to make that possibly at all, security has already been compromised, as required by law.

    This does not alleviate the issues of the original proposal in any way whatsoever.

        The scary thing is, even when there is a button “only required” right next to it, it’s scary how many people automatically click “accept all”. Even among tech-savy people.

        The conditioning is frightening.
