So 'I'd be fine' if you really were a dictator? Because you'd 'let me' have freedom of speech? lol- you're definitely letting your little power fantasies slip through there ;)
You didn't say it, yes. But established survaillance can be countered by encrypted messanging apps, so the next logical step is to ban them. In fact, the US has been trying to do so for a long time now and the same excuse is always given - "think of the children". There's a video by Louis Rossmann and another one by Mental Outlaw, both going into detail about why this is just that, an excuse. Survaillance isn't normal and should not be normalised.
Every country has survaillance, US just makes the most noise with laws being passed. It's the principle that matters - once other countries see that a certain law allows them to monitor people more closely, they'll want to pass their version of that law. Australia is basically a Police State, UK also has very privacy-invasive laws.
