Well I’m not arguing that. The UK doesn’t seem to be structurally much better than the US, I’m no even sure how I’d go about measuring that. Although it is a bit naive to say that the US (or rather the Detroit police force) isn’t covering up some of Detroit’s crime statistics. So far as I’m aware almost any metric used to allocate reward and punishment will eventually be gamed.
Jiro has some nice CCTV camera abuse cases. Online information gathering takes all those abuse cases quite a bit further. Instead of possibly one lie or falsehood or case of wrong/politically damaging information you can probably choose from dozens if you have access to a politician’s online data. Same abuse cases, more ammunition against an average person.
