This sort of reasoning is almost always spurious. Without enough facts about the truth, people try to think about what the motivations of different entities would be, and then assume that those entities are able to pursue those motivations.
Usually, there is not enough information for a 3rd party observer to actually know the motivations of a large group, or know enough about the facts to know whether those groups were able to successfully pursue their incentives.
- gfiorav 7y agoAgreed. I do admit it's the "easy" thing to do. I usually resent people who think everything is a conspiracy, but tbh, apart from encrypting everything you upload everywhere, I don't know how to "be safe". Not that I'm concerned that government agencies would want to "hunt me down" or anything. I'm more concerned of what hackers will be able to do when they steal that info from the government (i.e., very ellaborate and credible scams to close family impersonating me).
