Brilliantly articulated breakdown of what's at stake here. The genetic technology angle is what really hits home for me becasue once that data gets out there or becomes part of some registry, there's no putting that genie back in the bottle. I've seen firsthand how hard it is to even get basic transparecny from health agencies on stuff way less invasive than this. Seems like once governments grab emergency powers, they never fully give them back.

Democracies don’t fail because laws exist, they fail when power is exercised without clear limits, scrutiny, or accountability- and remember, democracy decays quietly, through precedent and process, not dramatic takeovers. We are sliding into loss of democracy and people choose to be blind rather than to wake up and recognize what is happening here.
