Big Tech: The Government's Silent Partner in Surveillance?

The US government has gained chilling access to citizens' daily lives through cooperation with tech giants like Meta, Google, and Apple. Over the past decade, these three companies have handed over details of over 3 million accounts to the government, with data requests skyrocketing. While used for investigations, this raises serious privacy concerns, as many requests lack judicial oversight and may lead to wrongful convictions. To maintain their business models, tech companies struggle to effectively protect user privacy, inadvertently becoming complicit in government surveillance.
