Why do you carry a GPS tracker around? Why do you put wireless in your home? Lots of things are easy to question until you step back from your single point of view and realize a large population out there doesn't live with a tinfoil hat on. It is not because they don't care about the same security problems you do, it is because they are naive and don't understand how stuff works or what the problematic implications of using them are.

- emodendroket 9y agoIt's also because this isn't a problem well-suited for addressing by individuals. I doubt even Richard Stallman audits every line of code he ever runs on his computer, and I doubt most of us would want the extreme level of inconvenience that comes with living his life.
