This is a good thing for us normal humans. More privacy is always a good thing. Let it spread further...
I mean do we have any reason to expect it to travel further? The system made a few billionares feel uncomfortable, now they don't feel uncomfortable, the law isn't going to expand.
If a face tracking or car tracking system were to go live. Billionares would find a way to exempt themselves from it, but make sure it was live for everyone else. The reason there aren't exceptions made for this rule, are because there's not a whole lot of poor private plane owners.
This isn't restricted to billionaires. It will benefit others as well.
Yes this isn't limited to billionaires. It protects everyone who owns private jets...
can you explain where I'm missing here? unless I'm majorly missing something, is there a benefit for people who don't own, or regularly travel in private planes?
