I hear TmSignal supports this and also has easy cloud access to those conversations😇

We can certainly disagree on priority — in an era when government has been dramatically changing the rules and pushing to use data in new ways it should not count as trivial, and we should be very careful about further ratchets.

Poster claimed that they can travel without cars, and I'm pointing out that one of the primary alternatives is also surveilled.

That's a great question! I think pedestrians and cyclists deserve more protection, especially from large trucks used as cars.

My argument is that there's a tradeoff which OP handwaved away.

My point is that there are costs to a congestion pricing scheme. People who want one can't wave them away.

You seem like a nice person. Have a great life.

Great! And now you can't go anywhere private in your own car. Which you might think is desirable, but ignoring a cost because you don't personally pay it doesn't make the cost disappear.

"After all, we've already let random traffic cameras, toll systems and more destroy privacy, why not ignore congestion pricing's destruction of remaining privacy in where we go?"

Anyway, Brandolini’s law continues to hold: Bullshit is asymmetrical.

Editorial failures like this put the burden on me to track how even purportedly scholarly works (mis)use what I’ve said and written, and expend time and effort to set the record straight. It’s untenable in the long run.

I have literally zero understanding of how those get promoted

People get morally superior about handwashing dishes?!?

In this interpretive dance performance, I shall construct a post-Martxist critique of microsuperiority, drawing extensively on lived experience as a dishwasher when it paid $1 more than any other on-campus job.
