Congrats, you don't get encrypted because you're not a member of a tightly regulated militia. Sarcasm aside, the only way to make sure people get encryption is to make it impossible to restrict the technology. That's how encr

If the cabin depressurizes, the pilots immediately fly the plane down at a 45 degree angle to quickly move to an altitude with more hospitable air pressure. People who don't put on masks (and most people don't) regain consciousnes

The examples you included do not show that Americans have their rights deprived without legal oversight. The exception is drone striking Americans who are overseas plotting imminent terrorist attacks.

Ah, I also failed to consider that Egypt had an agency named NSA. I feel dumb now.

It's basically the idea of dialectical materialism. The very popular book White Fragility is a great example of this thought process.

How did she know he worked for NSA? Did she have any way to verify he was an American or worked for the NSA? Do you think the NSA hires people who specialize in HUMINT? Why would he tell her he works for the NSA? Too many unanswered questio

Do you think the NSA gives the orders on who to kill and who to kidnap?

They don't need a court order to sniff packets and do bulk collection. All that data goes into huge data centers. If they want to query that collected data for an American's information, they get a warrant. No human looks at an Am

So only crimes are wrong? The coffin confessor does mention that he offers to confess crimes after someone dies.

Because if that information were released it would cause significant damage to the country. Why on earth is my company's TLS private key kept a secret from all the employees?

So in the end they only convict people based on legally permissible evidence that shows they are guilty beyond a reasonable doubt? How horrible.

When you find a way for a country to exist with 0 enemies, please let us all know.

So you just have the word of one activist? Sorry, that's not enough evidence for me to believe it. If the NSA wanted to unlock a random journalist's phone, they would be able to hack it.

No court order was necessary because AT&T consented to the NSA presence. Just like how your employer can hand over your corporate laptop to the police without needing a warrant. If you don't like it, consider dealing with another b

Oh, I see. Yes. In America you are free to use whatever VPN you pay for, regardless of what country it's hosted in. The NSA won't prohibit it and cannot break it if it's using the right algorithms. If they wanted to intention

If we were like China, Joe Biden would be in jail. It's a different level entirely. Also please use some judgment when seeing America through the lens of our news media. They have every incentive to exaggerate stories so they can get m

Why on earth would it be a good idea to reveal highly classified information to the entire planet during a televised hearing?

This is some wack logic. If I murdered you and stole your car, would you mind if I got away with the crime? What's that, you'd be upset? Doesn't matter, you're dead.

It's not a strawman since it is exactly that which is stated by many influential leftist writers.

I'm very sure that you're wrong. Do you have any evidence that the NSA kidnaps and tortures people?

The difference is that here we have the freedom to criticize and organize against it. One of the presidential candidates wants to tear down all the stuff you pointed out. I can say that the surveillance doesn't affect me because it&#x2

In America you can buy privacy if you really want it. Buy a laptop here, install linux on it, and use a VPN. The NSA can't stop you if you really want privacy. This is illegal in China, where every VPN must be state sponsored and monit

America won't arrest you on your vacation here just because you criticized the country on social media. I'd take American hegemony over Chinese hegemony any day of the week.
