Snowden revelations mentioned that even downloading or visiting sliaT website gets you on a list.
- FreeFull 8y agoI do wonder how many lists I am on already.
- g0dg0d 8y agoA lot. https://boingboing.net/2014/07/03/if-you-read-boing-boing-the-n.html https://boingboing.net/2014/07/03/if-you-read-boing-boing-th... According to the story, the NSA targets anyone who searches for online articles about Tails
- Fnoord 8y agoThe release of Tails 3.8 was announced on HN, so everyone from HN is on the list. We're doomed. This is actually rather ironic because it exactly shows how mass surveillance fails because it doesn't target selectively (that's what targeted surveillance does).
- timerol 8y agoIf that is truly the case, then we should encourage as many people as possible to visit the Tails' site. If the list changes from "these people are doing 'dangerous' things" to "these people know someone who likes technology", then the list itself becomes a lot less useful.
