Besides changes in air travel there wasn’t this massive shift in daily life from before and after 9/11. I was in high school when it happened and was appalled by how little my classmates cared or had any concept how it could affect them.

I think this is true in terms of what you actually see, but it’s probably not true in terms of the amount of data surveillance that occurs behind the scenes. Of course that was going to happen to an extent anyway with the expansion of the internet and advertising
I was speaking only of my lived personal experience.

I actually don’t think that the degree of surveillance on our own citizens would have happened or been possible without 9/11. I’m curious what nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 thinks. He’s likely been asked this before. So if anyone has a link to an article etc where he’s answered this, I’d appreciate it.
