“You could read anyone’s email in the world, anybody you’ve got an email address for. Any website: You can watch traffic to and from it. Any computer that an individual sits at: You can watch it. Any laptop that you’re tracking: you can follow it as it moves from place to place throughout the world. It’s a one-stop-shop for access to the NSA’s information. … You can tag individuals … Let’s say you work at a major German corporation and I want access to that network, I can track your username on a website on a forum somewhere, I can track your real name, I can track associations with your friends and I can build what’s called a fingerprint, which is network activity unique to you, which means anywhere you go in the world, anywhere you try to sort of hide your online presence, your identity.”
- Comment on Trump is building ‘one interface to rule them all.’ It’s terrifying. 3 weeks ago:
The Trump administration’s ongoing efforts to combine access to the sensitive and personal information of Americans into a single searchable system with the help of shady companies should terrify us – and should inspire us to fight back.
We should indeed fight back against the governments and corporations that for decades have been doing this shit.

If you care about the environment and are upset about corporations and their datacenters your best voting option is neither the red or blue party.

You should complain whenever million gallons of water are wasted by corporations seeking profits or by governments for their shady operations. Not just when it’s about AI.

- Comment on As governments around the world are set to make the Internet more restrictive and privacy-invading, we need a solution 1 month ago:
Wi-Fi mesh might be possible with neighbors, but mitm is extremely likely.
While not secure it could still provide a free and censorship-less alternative to the internet
- Comment on As governments around the world are set to make the Internet more restrictive and privacy-invading, we need a solution 1 month ago:
Frankly, the answer should be for every site to just cut the UK off entirely.
Tech corporations own most popular and visited websites/services, they are not going to do it. That said you have countries with major websites blocked like russia or china, while it upset many people censored internet is also a strong tool to brainwash people so don’t assume a blockage would lead to a positive outcome.
- Comment on As governments around the world are set to make the Internet more restrictive and privacy-invading, we need a solution 1 month ago:
The main thing to do is remain calm, make it a key voter issue, and watch the bastards fold right before the next election.
What’s your plan to make it a key voter issue? Lamenting about it on censored internet?
We need bulletproof alternatives and solutions.
- Comment on As governments around the world are set to make the Internet more restrictive and privacy-invading, we need a solution 1 month ago:
You are not overreacting, an alternative to internet is needed and it’s not that hard to create, there are many projects already of networks working over radio and wifi, we should probably just stick to one of these and work to expand it

Do you actually believe the government care about people not watching porn? The whole point is mass surveillance and to extend ID verification to the internet.
- Comment on Mastercard, Visa Under Fire As Petition To 'Not Police' Legal Content Blows Up 1 month ago:
How do they suck? They have their pro and cons, i would still take them as an alternative to a for profit private corporation.
- Comment on Mastercard, Visa Under Fire As Petition To 'Not Police' Legal Content Blows Up 1 month ago:
You are commenting in a thread about mastercard and visa policing payments and still in denial about someone coming up with a decentralized alternative?
- Comment on Mastercard, Visa Under Fire As Petition To 'Not Police' Legal Content Blows Up 1 month ago:
Cryptocurrencies were made to avoid shit like this. Good luck gently ask mastercard and visa to change their policies.

successful financially and socially
Going around with a machete makes you more successful predator. Being successful financially doesn’t mean shit and neither does having followers on social media.

Lying and manipulating people won’t get you anywhere further in this world. Having more money than someone or a better position in a company doesn’t actually mean shit.

Can we stop with the narrative that corporations and celebrities are doing good? This guy is 110 Million people away from doing something for privacy and linux, once he makes 110 million and one person switch to linux or using a youtube alternative he will have done some work in the positive.
