Fbi got involved.

Lots of unanswerred questions.
*The Russian means russian citizens or anyone in that vincity, not the govt until furthur info
Right. The hackers released enough info. I'm talking minutes - sensitive information that patients believed to be confidential between them and a consultant. Once any info is stored electronically it is only private for a limited amount of time, i believe. It then becomes philosophical. And questions a right to privacy. Why do we hold privacy so dearly anyways. Its all coming out in the end as AI grows.
People have spent much more time thinking about this. The sci-fi author David Brin for example.
Have you seen the episode of black mirror whereby every citizen has a social credit score. Thats already happening in China. Its coming to Europe now too. Covid is helping it along.

Remember when Russell Brand used to be reasonable. Remember when you didn't agree so much with the right wing as a proud leftist. Remember when Sweden was the only country in Europe to handle the coronavirus correctly and perform better than the European average at deaths per million but otherwise usually smart people argued against their strategy.
Im drunk and i will fight anyone of you. Is it true London is gone a little haywire? I see vidro clips online. This may be somewhat overblown i suspect.
