Yeah, that will stop it. An element of danger and secrecy historically always stops sex and relationships. 🤣
How can this be constitutional? This is a huge governmental intrusion into the personal lives of these personnel. I understand what the concern is, but I’ve never seen such an attempt to rule over the personal lives of employees.
Of course it’s unconstitutional, but because nobody in charge of our government has any sense of common decency, they’ll force it through the court, like a sieve, and, eventually, even when the courts will against them, they’ll do what they want anyway, because nobody has the balls to get up and actually stop them.
Ya best start believin’ in fascist techno-dystopias, 'cause yer in one!
Seriously tho, these guys don’t care about the constitution. Pretty clear they want to establish a dictatorship.
Would Mitch McConnell like to add anything to this conversation? Perhaps to muse how wrong it is before throwing the full weight of his support behind its architects?

“The US regime has laws to control some people’s sexual life.”
Because that always works.
Makes sense. Odd that it wasn’t a thing before
Exactly how does it make sense to try to dictate employees personal lives outside of the office?
No sense in trying to dictate what dicks are allowed to do, that’s a job for God and the Church! Haha bazinga.
Espionage. Honey pots are a well established tactic, and China is a hostile country.
‘I’m not Chinese, I’m from Taiwan’
Damned, fooled again by those meddlesome spies!
K, don’t volunteer to be a spy in China. That’s not what this is about.
Spies target non-spies all the time. It’s the point of being a spy
