Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.
All-seeing surveillance systems don’t make us safer. They are in direct opposition to our civil liberties.

The exonerative tense here is so extreme it's difficult to even know what even happened because the article straight up avoids describing it. It seems like a van hit a child pedestrian, but you have to really read through the lines to figure that out.
