    Conveniently pushes against privacy, for spying, against encryption. Pushes mouth-watering (for surveillance) program of taking photos of hotel rooms and uploading them tagged with location, supposedly for the purposes of identifying locations of trafficking victims (won't help much IMO as traffickers just get smart, take photos one week, move to another hotel the next and then start advertising) which has the appeal to intelligence of being able to 4chan style easily ID where someone is in any picture taken in a hotel room (down to the floor and maybe side of the hotel) with a simple comparison search. Might not seem like much but spies do use hotels, leakers use hotels, hostile press uses hotels, activists they don't like use hotels and though many require credit cards these days allowing easy IDing through that, there are still many that take cash with a deposit.

    Doesn't at all fight number one root enabler of sexual exploitation of women and girls: liberal capitalism. Hmmm, hmm.
