    I don’t know why you’re assuming their ‘/s’ is alluding to sarcasm around this being surveillance versus sarcasm around needing more surveillance. “We need more surveillance (we actually don’t)” seems to be indicated here, not “This is surveillance (it actually isn’t)”.

    Especially when Reddit types are notoriously, chronically unable to read articles before they go spouting uninformed bullshit in the comments.

      Why not both?

      (We don’t need more surveillance and this isn’t actually surveillance.)
