We can't, the technical capability ensures it will be used. The ONLY option is to ditch most Internet use, go back to pre-backdoored hardware, do everything over Tor or i2p, and basically force the surveillance state to manually stake people out with actual field agents, which is so expensive that it's basically impossible to do at any scale.
As long as people insist on carrying a gov-corp tracker pod with them everywhere they go, and plug in listening devices throughout their homes, the nightmare will continue.

- mmh0000 3y agoI believe that only matters if you're going public-internet -> Tor -> public-internet. If you stay within the Tor network, as far as I understand, it is still secure regardless of how many nodes the other side controls.
