Goddamn. What in the fuck is this timeline even. Now we need a THIRD secured device to secure comms between a remote server to stop MITM shit for fucks sake. Time to go deeper I guess.

Surveillance is bad, but in other parts of the world people die in wars and get killed with families for their ethnicity and\or religion, with punishing the perpetrators not even being attempted.

I’d say these tendencies in the (power-wise) center of the world are the reason for more violence on the rim, though.

So in my opinion this is generally one and the same battle.

This abstraction sucks. Every abstraction justifying shitty behavior should be scrutinized out of existence.

Such an idiotic comment really.

I’m saying this whole phenomenon hits you and your part of the world less than any other.

I said that in a more subtle way, because I never expect people who fail at reading to blame that on me.

What do you mean? The miracle of encryption means any two servers can establish secure communication, and MITM is not possible. The hard part is knowing that the server you’re connecting to is the right one.

"But Biden had to sign the Bush era anti-terrorism surveillance state bill! Think of how many of those spies can now be gay or women! REAL Progress is baby steps to where your constitutional rights are violated by minorities and women!!

It’s genuinely amazing how we can’t push for any bills for raising the federal minimum wage, protecting abortion, protecting queer healthcare, but we can ban wearing hoodies on the senate floor, [passing spying bills on par with China, and then bundling a TikTok ban with aid to Ukraine and Israel.

Sure is great living in a democracy. Where there’s only one “valid” option, and he still sucks shit.
