This is ten years old. Needs a date.
Was hoping for some new tips on what to do about government agencies demanding information from constituents and then storing it in MS Windows.
- autoexec 2y agoWindows is an oppressive government's wet dream. Records everything, collects massive amounts of private data and sends it to a central location, randomly forces remote software installation/"updates", prevents users from accessing parts of the OS/file system. What more could they want?
- hulitu 2y agoYou forgot Android and iOS. But yes, Windows does it on a whole new level.
- smolder 2y agoInvent a new language from scratch and teach it only to people you can trust fully, then start a society from scratch among those people.
- mixmastamyk 2y agoThe telemetry-first OS is the problem, not the language.
- bravetraveler 2y agoTo be undone by a bored linguist on the weekends
- nicce 2y agoNot really. They would need sime hints about context. It can be made difficult.
- bravetraveler 2y agoBut, you see, this just makes it more interesting to them. Now they get to camp.
- ElevenLathe 2y agoI wonder if you could create a ConLang with built-in usefully-hard encryption that is possible to do without a computer. Seems daunting, but the brain is an incredible machine.
- Aerbil313 2y agoThere's https://toaq.net/ https://toaq.net/ and many others. Spoken by <500 people last time I checked the discord.
- moritzwarhier 2y agoSo Esperanto combined with the first rule of Fight Club?
- contingencies 2y agoConfidentiality is easy when you start with full trust and the ability to pre-exchange secrets. I for one propose an unwritten language of moans and yodels steganographically modulating a subset of classical Chinese atop boudoir French poetry, preferably set to sitar.
