Conflating privacy stripping laws with paedophilia protection is something I'd happily deconstruct, whether in front of a camera or otherwise. It's not difficult to show with logic how one doesn't help the other, and I could even go as far as showing how the laws make things worse.

Don't bring feelings to a logic fight.




Convincing people not to support privacy eroding laws isn't a logic fight as you are imagining it. Advocacy is much more complicated than that.

Who said anything about convincing people? The logic will stand on it's own merit, regardless of who "wins" the argument. Anybody caring to examine the arguments — or continue arguing logically — can make up their own minds.

I'll happily argue logic, but other people's opinions aren't my problem.
