Have you ever heard of Snowden ?

  If it were up to that guy we'd all lock our phones in refrigerators after dark.

    What is this statement implying?
    • balibebas 8y ago
      The statement implies not to trust any computer, even those you can throw out a window (sorry, Woz).

    You (poorly) jest...but there'd be a lot less intimacy spied on.

  Doesn't the Snowden phenomenon kind of make his point? His leaks spawned a shitstorm of US/Western media coverage and even court cases against the government. What happens inside China if a Chinese national flees the country and blows the whistle? Basically no challenge to the government, media blackout, maybe his friends get sent to re-education camps, etc.

    >even court cases against the government I mean, that was basically the extent of it though. There has been little-to-no actual systemic change.

    I'm pretty sure Snowden would get sent to "re-education" camp if US could get hands on him ;)
