    When the people making the rules are the same people with supreme authority to breech your privacy, what’s to stop them from declaring anything you do as illegal? This idea of “nothing to hide, nothing to fear” is really only beneficial to power-seekers, and you’re just licking their boot by jumping on board.

    Hope it tastes cool at least.

      I’ve been in cyber security for 20 years now. I feel bad if you think the government being unable to break into your phone is the dam keeping your information private. I get your well intentions though.

        No, it’s this pervasive idea that privacy doesn’t matter what’s got a bee in my bonnet. I would hope someone working cyber security would be especially aware that such a devil may care attitude is a short walk towards a long dystopia.
