    Civillian use of Drones.

    I’m very certain there’s gonna be a 9/11-like terrorist attack involving drones and then governments all around the world are gonna get extremely paranoid and just ban it unless you get a special permit that only big corporations can get.

      I don’t usually like SovCits, but like maybe we should really start popularizing SovCit movements. 🤔

        I always had some sympathy with them. It just seems like they want off this awful capitalistic treadmill we find ourselves on. Everyone always laughs and belittles them, but I’m always rooting for em just a lil bit

    In the US: Not wholly illegal but I predict erosion of the 4th amendment under the guise of keeping the country safe. I predict the definition of a “reasonable” search and seizure will expand.

    Across the world: as someone else mentioned, encryption is going to start getting a lot more attention as well.

    Being queer 🫠

    Republicans want to redefine transgenderism as “gender identity fraud”. RFK wants to send neurodivergent people to labor camps. You do the math.
