That's only true if you believe one side. The Democrats have also repeatedly expanded surveillance just like the Republicans. There only seem to be a handful of congress people who are are concerned with privacy.
I'm more concerned with poverty than I am with the surveillance state. It's already here and will never be rolled back. Things could still be done to alleviate poverty like universal healthcare, ubi, etc.
Those who would sacrifice a little liberty, for a little safety, deserve neither.
Sacrifice? It was fucking stolen, shot in the head, and thrown in the sea before anyone knew it was even happening.
Very good literature lesson you have there. Let's live in the real world. What are you doing to roll back privacy erosion? Kids don't even understand privacy. I have a nephew that uses his full legal name for everything he does online and will not stop, despite me talking to him about how stupid that is several times.
Privacy is over apart from the tools I'm sure you know about and use. Let's focus on the big shit.
Well, I'm showing peeps how easy it is to move to tor browser, for more surfing. And if that's too much, I show and help people install a decent browser plug-in collection.
Also, trying, again, to build a community owned mesh network.
And, getting more people to use signal and proton mail.
And, teaching stop the bleed classes, and organizing range days.
And, until recently, seeding community gardens and tool libraries.
So yes, you don't need to sacrifice liberty for safety.
Righteous. We should be friends.
The NSA compromised the TOR network as long ago as 2013, it's not anonymous.
No, they did not. This has been a rumor since the Tor project was created by the DoD. Same rumors about selinux.
They absolutely did, and very likely could again at any time. It doesn't matter what you do if they monitor literally all the traffic everywhere, which they do.
