Is this unique? I feel like there are many companies providing this sort of surveillance/data-scraping aggregation and indexing functionality to law enforcement and TLAs. We just don’t hear about them too often because we are not their customers.

Our government has abandoned us, and total surveillance is the future unless something radical changes.

Fun tip: get an old analog radio, like in an old non-connected car or a boombox or walkman or clock radio or something, go somewhere quiet and private, and listen to whatever you want. And realize that nobody knows what you’re listening to—it’s your secret. I find this to be a strangely powerful experience.
