Yeah but doing important drug deals on zoom is a major no-no.
Seriously, we know for a fact that all internet communications have been completely compromised for a long time. If they have ever been safe. It makes plenty of sense if money is no object and certain things have to be discussed. That said, it's a massive waste. I wonder what happened to Musk's idea to have rockets fill that niche

- markdestouches 4y agoIt has been a dumb idea from the start. In a nutshell, making the whole process secure to acceptable levels would slow things down to the point where it's the same time as a regular plane flight. Yet it would cost orders of magnitude more. Edit: I'm commenting on Musk's rocket travel proposal
- cma 4y agoSpaceX announced the plan for cross-world rocket flights cheaper than a business class ticket in 2018, by 2028, and Musk doubled down on the timeframe in an interview in 2020. Boom doesnt have a chance of earning back its investment if it will only be able to operate for a few years before Musk comes through on his aggressive timeline. Passengers will need to be fitted for spacesuits and there is no launch abort system.
- zarzavat 4y agoMusk’s service will never fly, it’s pure fantasy. There’s no way that governments are going to allow an ICBM through their airspace just because some businessman is willing to risk his life to get to a meeting on time. To say nothing of the environmental costs.
