As I said, I have no problem sharing it. The controversy I see is between the message of "off grid, good old fashioned solitude in the forest" vs the "instagrammy, watch me how I do, big brotherish" (as in the TV show) a

And I'm pretty sure most people hasn't tried to force too many people. It's one thing to tell your family, maybe your neighbour, especially when you know all of them did it it the past and another is going out of your way. Bu

It's not flawless. But the point is not that it is flawless or that it should be (because, I don't think such a complex process can ever be). The point is that it gives you the best possible result as of now. Meaning, you have the

This is an interesting question and has several responses beyond the knee-jerk one. First of all, the process was expedited at the request of the authorities, so it's natural that they try to reduce their risks. Also, even if we disreg

You can never test "100%", especially if you don't define what it means. But you've set it up to be an unsatisfiable expectation anyway, saying that "100%" means "testing in the wild". Which means rel

You should trust the system and the process. No, AZ does not cause blood clots. It's being investigated for it. And even if it does cause, you should take into account the probability. Which seems to be extremely low compared to yo

Maybe. But the reason they would say it is because it can be a valid excuse, right? We fund the state and the justice system for a few very specific reasons. This is one of them. Also, don't forget that FB is a (near) monopoly, so the

While you are correct that sender authentication is an important requirement, I think you are mixing two things. Having end-to-end encryption is one thing, sender authentication is another. It does matter what you trust BitWarden with. If y
