The people's whose weddings got bombed by drones, or who get thrown in jail for having the same skin color and being in the same city block as an alleged perpetrator, may see it differently from you.
- ben_w 7y agoThere is indeed a lot wrong in this world. What you describe is an additional problem. A normal person targeted by a blackmailer over their sexual history would be a closer model, although even then it would still not be close to the level of a state sponsored attack on you personally — that can include combining the drones with accurate information rather than whatever led to them hitting weddings, or it could be as mild as Van Eck phreaking to find what you’re looking/who you’re talking to at no matter how well you encrypt the connection.
- visarga 7y agoApparently being Zuck means you need to have an insane level of protection. But regular people also have things to lose when their privacy is thrown out the toilet. Thanks to z.
- ben_w 7y agoYes, I absolutely agree. Worse, most people don’t grok what computers can do, so they are unaware of how much they have lost until this bites them. Oh for the innocent bygone days of around 15 years ago.
