While we all live under constant surveillance and are treated as a suspect for crimes past and future by our government, in the end it's looking like it wasn't the spy drones, or facial recognition AI, or the internet data collection that caught this guy, and instead it was just some random dude at a McDonald's who recognized him and called the police. Same basic tactic that's worked for ages. No fancy spy stuff needed.
