Hochul signs new gun laws

I said this when the CC thing was passed last year, this is technically an invasion of privacy. It would be expensive to fight, but just like having to give all your social media and email addresses was ruled invasion of privacy, so is this. I wonder what banks and credit card companies would do if we all went back to paying for everything with cash? CC companies would lose billions in fees and interest. Debit cards won't hurt banks much, though, unless people stopped keeping money in those banks. I mean, banks use our money to loan out, we don't get anything in return, but the banks make tons of money off the interest from the loans they use our money to lend.

Every single credit card transaction you make stores data about the type of thing you're buying.

It's called MCC merchant category codes. I know this from work. Pretty much anything can be tracked, maybe not to the serial number detail but it can be tracked pretty far more than people realize. Here's a real life example of how a business used this data... An employee was using their company credit card to make a purchase from store xyz instead of the preferred vendor 123. They pulled the MCC history data from the card and tracked it to the granular level that the employee was buying condoms on the company card which are clearly not approved. Employee equals not working there anymore.



All of your spending data is saved into databases and tracked. Sufe it's usually just bullshit rewards programs and for marketing but it can definitely be used for sinister government big brother over reach and social credit nonsense. Which is conspiracy theory stuff. Except, out governor literally just said that's what she's making the credit card companies do.

So if you're buying "standard" capacity magazines, ammo, survival gear, all that is now fair game for empress hochul. Why this is a ridiculous pretense for invading our privacy is the guys doing public shootings are probably just buying a couple boxes of ammo. They aren't the guys buying thousands of rounds. So their entire premise is skewed and doesn't make sense.

I am driving, haven't done any research on this yet but I heard her in her own words bragging about 3 new anti gun laws that are now in effect. One of which should concern everyone here.

She is extremely proud that she coerced credit card companies to collect and store data on consumer purchases of gun related items like ammo to report into a database for predictive analysis on whom the state police needs to flag pre emptively as "stocking up to do something bad".

Just throwing that out there to make people aware.

Will the State begin to notify CC companies to track pens? How about Google data tracking movements when to/fro guns shops or the close proximity thereof?

NY is fucking insane! And I'm sorry, it's great to be getting out of the retched State! Still haven't sold our home but pretty much haven't spent much time at all over the last year there. And it's fucking refreshing!

To celebrate, I think I'm going to head down to the LGA and finally get my can (silencer) ordered. And oh, these days it should take only about a week or two to get ATF approval/tax stamp. Maybe another Class III item or two as well...

Just because, like cars & dogs licking their balls... Because I can!

FUCK NY, in the most deepest and sincere manner possible. It's outrageous what they do to their constituents, disgusting and revolting. Unfortunately, you don't get to experience how bad it is until you see it from outside the pickle barrel.

Is a shame really, a damned shame!
