The problem here is: most of people on HN are statistically improbable. Snowden is very improbable. We're not "the vast majority". We're a minority.
I can no longer assess my own security in this world. What if the country I reside in decides to go after my kind of minority?

- cpncrunch 12y agoIf you're not doing anything illegal with tor or encryption, you shouldn't have anything to worry about (in Canada anyway).
