americans always spew bullshit about how kids in socialist states are/were indoctrinated to snitch on their parents and they say that every single apartment in north korea is bugged but now theyre basically doing a genre of surveillance beyond any of that stupid propaganda.

they have to record EVERYTHING. they record strangers in their own homes. they record homeless people. they record strangers without their consent. they have no boundaries to recording whatsoever.

one of the only benefits to american tourists in europe is that they fuck around and record people without their consent and get told off.
