I have no faith in the ability of nation-states to accurately determine that I am not a criminal, and the authorities in my home nation-state are known around the world for both their excessive violence and their unannounced home invasions, in which (for example) scenario reaching for my phone would result in me being killed. Those protections benefit me and others like me especially, and I’m comfortable paying a few more dollars for authorized repairs to retain them. I appreciate that you do not see the need for those protections for yourself, but the convenience you seek comes at the cost of the safety it provides others. I remain unpersuaded.
- jorvi 4y ago> I have no faith in the ability of nation-states to accurately determine that I am not a criminal No state will burn extremely expensive tools like Pegasus on a garden-variety criminal. I’m very conscious of my privacy and device security myself, but I’m also aware that I do not warrant high-cost surveillance. Most people are in that boat. You can model your threats accordingly.
