I think everyone here is misinterpreting what I meant, and I take full responsibility for that.
I think we thought of computers and the internet as our allies in privacy. They are not. They are our enemies.
I think we should stop trusting computers, any computers, as much as we possibly can.
Especially if you're in a minority that your government may try to punish.
We ARE in an oppressive surveillance state. Our government is tracking us. Every business is tracking us.
I highly recommend the novel "Daemon" and sequel "Freedom" by Daniel Suarez. He's a former Security consultant, who wanted to wake people up to how fragile our digital infrastructure is.
