• Rule of thumb: the further #covid19 spreads, the less control people will have because the regime can leverage a sense of emergency and presumption of "leper status" with the burden of proof NOT on the accuser. People are presumed "dangerous", esp. protesters and dissenters. See #russia under #putin weaponising this...
