I guess today's part 3 is mainly another interview with the same whistleblower the Guardian-or-whoever interviewed the other day.

It is even possible to have fair and free elections going forward?

I'm a little bit confused at what the controversy is even about.
It's obviously not great that data is being used in this way, but the scale of how big a deal is being made of this seems undoubtedly influenced by who won the election and who CA's clients are. CA wasn't keeping this a secret, and they've even been in the news before for their activities.
The "rules" of the game, the resources, and the tricks used are known and available to both sides. Trump is definitely going to be around for two full terms, and I'm wondering if in six more years... the democrats are going to still be too busy pointing fingers to secure any votes.
Like, you can't imply roughly half the voting public are easily manipulated idiots and then ignore them. If you truly believe it and winning is so important, then you should be trying to manipulate them. As much as you want it to be so, there is no prize or credit for superior ethics.
It's almost a little funny to me to watch what's unfolded since 2016, because my thoughts on it are the same as what people have been saying since the 80's and probably earlier: It's time for the dems to take the kid gloves off, and the fact that young democrats think this means demonstrations or even revolution is a sad commentary on their perception of reality and civic responsibility.
