> But do you believe the the kind of widespread "dragnet" surveillance that was made known through the Snowden leaks is still going on? Snowden didn't stop it. And it's only getting worse. No matter how much TLS you have, governments still continue to fund efforts to backdoor everything that blinks and spy on everything that moves, and not only through technology, but also through coercion and politics. Tightening security didn't really make any difference against state actors. But it was and still is a seemingly convincing excuse to centralize control over technology.
