The physical world is tangible and can be accessed by pure force. The mind and thought, and by extension our intangible data, are not subject to the same rules and are (and hopefully will remain) a safe haven of privacy.
There will be no more freedom if we can't keep our thoughts secrets from the authority.
- notduncansmith 7y agoI feel like there is a difference between having a thought, and expressing that thought in (entirely tangible, in terms of electromagnetic signals) data over a wire that someone else owns. If you want your thoughts to stay yours, you’re free to keep them to yourself; just don’t transmit them through electromagnetic media that other people currently control by force.
