It's amazing to me that the folks at the NSA had enough self-reflection to see that this is Big Brother behavior, but not enough to realize why that's a bad thing.

- w1nst0nsm1th 3y agoThe 'Big Brother' thing doesn't shock me, I know about it for some time now. At least you can still believe a modicum they maybe have good intentions... You know, protecting us from bad guys or something... But the 'MiniTruth' thing... Wow,just wow... Context: The Ministry Of Truth in the 1984 novel is the service dedicated to propaganda, in which the whole society is drowned. Everything about the society they live in is a lie... It just blows away any hope of good intention from their part. The last time I read about something so cynic, suggesting so much contempt for the people they pretend to serve, with such carelessness, is when it was revealed que FTX internal chatroom was called 'Wirefraud'.
