In 2019, 10 years on, they will run AI checks on the last 50 million GPS co-ordinates stored in your personal movement profile, along with your purchase patterns and social media usage, to predict that you are likely to go there and take that photo, and intercept you on the way. https://t.co/iUCtJh637I

In theory, Congress could amend the federal law to give intl orgs like the World Bank absolute immunity again, but don’t hold your breath. Maybe WB considers relocating to Geneva?
