It is impossible to live functionally in society without trusting someone on some level.
- mirimir 10y agoFor sure. But it's prudent to understand and mitigate risk.
- duaneb 10y agoYea--I'm just saying this is a product of being a business, not Meyer. One can fight it and still give information over. You can't take the sign of struggle as a sign your data is safe.
- chc 10y agoIt's not a sign that your data is safe, but I think the point here is the opposite: You can take easy capitulation as a sure sign that your data is compromised. Similarly, the lock on my door doesn't make me safe against everyone who might want to commit any crime against me, but all else being equal, a locked door is still preferable from a security standpoint, and it's very preferable to keeping your valuables in an unlocked room with a known thief.

- piaste 10y agoYou can trust Google/MS/Yahoo!/etc. with your pizza orders and mortgage payments, while switching to self-hosted, GPG email from a RYF-certified machine for organising your secret mattress-tag-removing guerrilla.
