one way context differs: 80+% of Hungarian public says climate change is a serious issue; comparable number is 54% for U.S. (and only 23% of Republicans in latest cycle)

Ever-prescient Marshall McLuhan, 1969: "Under electric conditions there can be no privacy. The privacy invaders are the bulwark of the new knowledge industries, from the pollsters, to the insurance companies, and the credit ratings, ‘the eye in the sky,’ the age of the ‘snoop’."

Add this to the pile of reasons why permitting denser #housing by law is a good idea. Current zoning restrictions (min. lot sizes + min. setbacks) create larger yards and thus more lawns (low diversity, high chemical and water inputs).
