Sympathies
As one with no dog in this fight, no need to next turn over an offspring to this 'thing' that substitutes for school just now - I'd be just another sanctimonious twit, if I pretended that the course is clear.
No doubt you see the trade-offs, maybe even as "short term"? - and later we can fix the ugly side. But you know how such plans go, too.
Afraid we'd be on opposite sides of the barricade re "All Search All the Time", as I recall how (a few, small) betrayals by Big people affected my experience of what 'trust' might mean, as a tad. And in the present Neoconman enviro - I don't think any even 'small' further loss of individual rights is.. too small to fight against.
