I don't know how things function in the US, but here in Europe it's already pretty much a standard that average joes has totally the opposite opinion what media claims to be the result.
And when multiple other polls with multiple time more responders shows the opposite result, media is always silent.
Our politicians started to push biometrics / strong identificitation last year or this for every people who connects to internet. That's just step closer to that "you have no pricacy" conspiracy theory created by conpiracy theorist politicians.
That's unfortunate to hear, and I am not here to diminish your lived experience, but I can tell you that they're not pushing for biometric ID in the US to log on to the internet, and this poll is from a well-respected, well-known to be unbiased research group in the US who does polling data for US households and US issues and has for decades.
So in respect to this thread, your feelings on that have next to nothing to do with this discussion.
Well, that's good to hear then. Hopefully it stays on that track. EU and US is banning encrypted messaging currently at the same time though. And India already illegalized them, but Indian people says that so far it hasn't affected anybody by any means.
