The biggest end goal is scanning everyone’s data that we will only be able to store in the cloud because they bought all the storage and memory. This is useful far beyond advertising.

But yes, skewing public opinion is part 2 of that.

The spy agencies finally got their mind control except this is America so it’s also privatized.

Running everything said or done, online or off, all connected to people and their face and ID, through AI threat detection, to make secret social scores to be used against us I would add. Age checks are to further that purpose, as are the masterbaitorbases of the UK and shitholy red states in the US.

Then blame the droned undesirables' death on their opponents and scapegoats and drone them. Then steal their assets after, that goes without saying.

Basically automated culling of undesirable people for the most arbitary things, fake law and order appearance, but no free elections, no chance of rebellion or improvements, everyone forced to act happy and suffer whatever is inflicted on them, as our overlords attempt to replace us altogether.
