Imagine living through the 2020's rise of fascism and surveillance, looking at the OS age signal API and going "well this thing, in isolation, is not so bad, I think people are overreacting"

Ok yeah great the thing that could easily be weaponized further isn't so bad yet when viewed in isolation. I'm so glad the last 20 times people were concerned about similar slippery slopes nothing bad at all happened in the long term!
