  Open source means ownership. Trust means ready to be exploited. Proprietary is always theft of ownership.

  These don’t scare me as much as the little ones do in the grand scheme of things.

  I think we will see a 90% effective kill for $1k within the next decade. Start making your >> /dev/null and random image noise camouflage soon… ‘nobody here but a bad pixel’

  Privacy measures prevent labeling anyone as a criminal. People have always had the ability to speak in person with the same amount of ambiguity to the law. Real police work is required. Sure the scope of communication is larger, but that correlates with the scope of individual activities. There is just as much information to work with as there has always been. The problem is corrupt governments that want to steal autonomy in this disgusting neo feudal dystopia. Any sophist spinning this nonsense about mass surveillance should be feared and loathed. This is the way you create a Kremlin in a police state. This is how you find yourself invading another country for no reason, when you have no desire to kill your neighbors in such sanctioned murder and get yourself a ticket in a mass grave. Autonomy is everything. It is egalitarianism; a cornerstone of democracy; the fulcrum of enslaved servitude.

  It is never about children. It is about surveillance with a thin vernier to vocalize imbeciles. Trusting government is a time honored tradition of the worst of incompetent humans. Picture a world where Google Meta and Amazon are the Kremlin. Think of the information they have, cameras on every house, every bit of your life history online and in government. All power that can be abused will be abused eventually. The ownership over your digital footprint is direct ownership over you in the end. The only effect this has on the future is the subjugation and theft of these children’s future autonomy.
