A couple coworkers of mine and I have devised a perfect strategy to combat the anti-encryption/ anti-privacy movement. Since logic and reason do not work, start asking people who work against encryption / privacy and the people who also have those views, "Why do you hate America? Why do you hate freedom and the bald eagle?" This will surely gather people on the correct side.
- crdoconnor 11y agoThere seem to be a lot more people who shrug their shoulders and say that they have nothing to hide or they aren't very interesting than there are people who are actively against encryption. This is very much a case of manufacturing consent rather than support.
- cognivore 11y agoI have found another one as well. When someone is spouting off some anti-American B.S. I just ask, "You seem radicalized. Should I be afraid of you?" "Radicalized" is such an awesome put down for extremists now that the media have taken off and run with it. Just asking that question of a holocaust denier handing out pamphlets got them to leave in embarrassment.
