The Cooper Davis Act would force tech companies to report suspected drug activity to the government. Experts say it would be a disaster for digital privacy.
Combating drugs is good, spying is not good, you need a very transparent law that tackles the issue in a smart way.
EDIT: Why the downvotes? Is this a pro-drugs community?
Down votes are because studies have shown that programs like DARE and the “war on drugs” didn’t really make drugs go away, and that we need better solutions that address quality of life and mental health issues to keep people from turning to drugs in the first place. Also, saying we need to “combat” drugs is very adversarial, and reinforces the boogie man of “evil drug users”, which helps the passage of overly powerful laws, and often make it easier to exploit minorities.
I also think the simplistic “[let’s just] tackle the issue in a smart way” might rub people the wrong way, like “oh, well why didn’t we think of that?”
EDIT: Your edit of “people don’t agree with me, I guess that means they love drugs” is very assumptive, and close minded.
it’s never about the drugs, it’s never about the kids, it’s never about the anything
