We're already suspects, we might as well have the encryption too.
Privacy is a basic human right and cannot be granted or taken away. But you need to defend it all the same.
- Sauer_Kraut 13y agoI believe encryption is a very reasonable goal, but if anything the fact that encryption including stenography is highly detectable and is now known as reasons for suspicion and analysis, I do not agree with it being "the only recourse." This is a technical oriented community so I do feel the need to highlight the problem with focusing on technical solutions, let alone touting them as the only recourse. The writing so to speak was on the wall when recent exposed wrong-doings were made legal, immunity rendered with payments processed to the collaborators. Attempts at technical solutions have brought drone missiles upon Yemenis and others, Australians trapped in diplomatic buildings, valiant whistle-blowers imprisoned/deposed to Russia, data researchers jailed for gazing upon contractor information[1]. There is no technical solution to this. Technical solutions are getting people killed, renditioned, deposed, hunted, prosecuted, tracked, analyzed. Enough with the technical solutions already.
