Thanks for that.

Being from the good old(er) days m'self, I would prefer to forget that human evolution does not necessarily mean the same thing down on through every layer of society, which surely can, will, might or does believe it is evolved or evolving, simply on the basis of finding it easier and easier to deceive other people.

They get better at it. And it also happens to be sanctioned. Therefore, it must be way more evolved than, say, conscripting more justice (LE) resources into the surveillance of as yet unmonitored financial corruption, and other far more serious constitutional threats.
