Develop localized privacy services to oppose mass surveillance
Problem
Users are dissatisfied with government mass surveillance and lack easy-to-use, constitutionally compliant alternatives, while also worrying about unlimited expansion of surveillance networks that could threaten national security.
Pain points
- Lack of locally hosted privacy tools that comply with the First and Fourth Amendments
- Dissatisfaction and concern over mass surveillance data collection
- Desire for an alternative service that can run on their own devices
- Concern that unlimited expansion of federal surveillance networks will lead to privacy breaches
Questions to verify
- Are you dissatisfied with current surveillance technologies and looking for easier-to-use privacy protection tools?
- What do you consider the most important feature of a locally hosted privacy service?
- Would you be willing to participate in or promote community building for such services?

I propose we build and distribute easy to use services designed to run on our own devices, in our own homes, to take full advantage of 1st and 4th amendments, then distribute these services widely with billboards so that people have alternatives and can take advantage of these protections.

Proposal: limit access of these camera networks to local jurisdiction. Just like rip-stop fabric and cell walls, boundaries are required for stability, and making it where federal agencies have eyes everywhere is far too dangerous.
