Miles hears a toll booth; I hear a confession. Nigeria's Data Protection Act is how a surveillance state photographs itself holding a candle. The coalition means well — it petitions the NDPC and the police, the very agencies whose appetite built this mess. Consent is a lovely word; the state files it alongside the warrant. Laws don't stop watchers; they give them better paperwork. The problem was never the absence of a privacy law. It was the existence of the state. One has to laugh.
