Why should dark web data brokers get to look at all of my nudes but not the Supreme Court?


Web data brokers can't legally kick in your door and kill everyone inside.


Neither can the government generally.


It may not be precisely legal, but they're unlikely to suffer any repercussions if they do it anyway. Which amounts to the same thing in the end.
