How does this square with the whole libertarian bend?
Easy peasy. Don't want to be captured by surveillance cameras? You are free to not go where the cameras are.
Oh, are you not wealthy? Do you not have land? Do you not have access to food, power, other resources without venturing out to where these cameras are? Get more money and stop whining, you dirty poor.
This is why my infatuation with libertarianism that most teens seem to go through only lasted a week.
The golden rule: "He who has the gold makes the rules."
He doesn't have to square it because consistency is for poor people.
