I don't have any problem with you personally, but it's not your job to shut down a thread because you disagree with the author.

- dang 10y agoPlease don't take this thread any further off topic. A substantive debate about variance or the lack of it in the surveillance policies of successive administrations is on-topic in a thread about surveillance. But arguing about whether you should or shouldn't know who Schneier is, and some of these other things you've posted, are way out in the weeds.
- throwaway291289 10y agoYou simply criticized the wrong person. Schneier has already fought against the Clipper chip as far as I remember. I agree that we don't know yet whether surveillance will be worse under Trump than under Obama/Clinton. Trump likes to troll and is a bit unpredictable. He has flamed the CIA and apparently invites Musk (green energy). For all we know Schneier will be invited to the transition team next week.
