Well, you'd have to convince Texas to make polygamy legal--but let's be honest, it probably wouldn't be that hard.

It is only illegal if you get courts involved

Damn straight, keep a low profile and live happily ever after. Heh, good luck with that.

It would most certainly be hard.

Cambridge Analytica

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...tory-quicktake

During the summer of 2014, the U.K. affiliate of U.S. political consulting firm Cambridge Analytica hired a Soviet-born American researcher, Aleksandr Kogan, to gather basic profile information of Facefook users along with what they chose to “Like.” About 270,000 Facebork users, most or all of whom were paid a small amount, downloaded Kogan’s app, thisisyourdigitallife, which took the form of a personality survey. Kogan collected data not just on those users but on their Faceduck friends as well, if their privacy settings allowed it -- a universe of people that reached 50 million. The app, in its terms of service, disclosed that it would collect data on users and their friends.

And now everyone is fleeing.
