This goes double for him personally. I take his insistence on singing the praises for pervasive surveillance while avoiding it himself as an admission of him committing the worst crimes.

#12Where can I watch the 24/7 livestream showing what Larry Ellison is doing? He wants to be on his best behavior, right?

#13The fact that an out of touch billionaire might say such a thing doesn't bother me much, he's out of touch after all. The fact that we reliably and repeatedly see peasants (i.e. any less equal animal, so everyone here) who have no such excuse cheerleading for specific implementations in furtherance of their pet issues bothers me greatly. I'd say you ought to know better, but you do. When these subjects are discussed…
But we're all going to be billionaires soon, right? Right?
Edit: /s, in case it wasn't obvious

#14Why is it that every single person born between 1940 and 1965 (or making more than $1 million per year) just wants to see all freedoms erased and every natural resource exhausted for their personal comfort?

At one point, being gay was against the law, abortion is against the law in some places, at one time being an atheist could get your head cut off. Let's do some nonstop recording of Larry Ellison, his children, his entire family, his neighbors, because they'll "be on their best behavior, a midnight nonstop recording"
The rich and elite never think about these things because they never consider that it might also effect them.

Because they already own those assets and don't want anyone else to have them. The perception of wealth is always relative so if I can't make any more to maintain my status I must ensure that others can't get what I have.

Do not fall into the trap of anthropomorphising Larry Ellison.
