It's very fair to say that basically no one should be trusted with the large piles of data accumulated by various governments. But I would like to know why GP calls out Thiel specifically. Would they be just as mad at GovCloud?
Because Thiel is plainly, and in his own words, a regressive threat to democracy.
I think there is a minimum standard of being informed before you can start to question others. Thiel is on the record in many ways that would justify the GPs statement.
Yes, it is fair to say basically no one should be trusted with large piles of government data, but this holds more true for the the likes of Thiel who have indicated that they are willing to abuse such access.
