Yes they will, and it will work. It's not like this is the first time fascists built tools for other fascists to use on the public illegally, then once it came to light the tired, sick, worked to death population did exactly what they were conditioned to do, nothing, because they can't, they have no power, because they have been drained by corporate fascists so they have no recourse, no say in anything, it's just go back to work to make sure you're not eating out of garbage cans by next month.
The public is apathetic, but it's by design, if you don't already know about Edward Bernays then I suggest looking him up and finding out how they control the public. This however feels vary familiar, there was a scandal in the 90s about Stingray devices being used illegally by guess who..... fascist cops doing what the fascist propaganda taught them their whole life, get those "criminals" anyway you can, even if you have to become the highest order of criminal scum to do so, all those cop shows conditioned those fascists just right (no pun intended.) In other words this is just business as usual. Here's a link to Wikipedia about Stingray devices if you're interested. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingray_use_in_United_States_law_enforcement
