- dmix 13y agoThis patchwork approach to attempting to solve a large broken system has visibly failed analogously to politics, in terms of preventing the threat of mass-surveillance. I don't see how this is any different. We need new technology to solve new problems. Decentralization. Changing behavior is not easy, but sometimes necessary. Everything else being proposed seems half-assed (for lack of a better word) and easily circumventable by a resourceful adversary. As long as Google (or whomever) holds all the cards and has a lot to lose by not complying to threat of force (for ex. shareholders and stock prices), then we won't get anywhere.
