  Why not just ask any 14 year old?

  There are three different exploits that could be used right now. Pretending iphones are secure is fun.

  This is going to seriously effect the ability to scapegoat them

  I mean, who can I blame for everything that goes wrong now? Racists?

  How dare they attack Google.

  Google are the bestest evar. Honest. But just barely.

• On the post: When We Fail To Understand Privacy As A Set Of Trade-Offs, Everyone's 'Solutions' Are Unhelpful

  The Important Thing Is Knowing When Privacy Is A Concern.

  When the privacy issue effects a good ethical American tech company from getting data, it's a valid concern, as the story states. When some poor company is under attack, we must defend them.

  Conversely, It's not really a privacy concern if it involves people. At least, that's what the story is saying. It doesn't really matter unless one of our very important tech companies is being inconvenienced. They are our masters and should be protected always. Please vote for Biden.

  How dare they

  How dare they try to deplatform Twitter using the same argument used to deplatform 8chan. I mean, the argument doesn't even work anymore at all or something. Twitter doesn't even have the word chan in it's name!

  "Play their game on their terms!"

  No, sue them.

  Naw, I don't feed trolls

  While the story seems to indicate feeding trolls and organized brigading groups on twitter is a good idea.

  No, keeps suing the hell out of them. It's the only thing that actually works.

  If I try to get a job making sandwiches

  They'll know I drank too much at a bar twenty years ago, and the cops had to be called.

  But a cop that murdered someone, shucks, they either don't bother to check or don't care it seems. He gets a new job easily. After killing someone.

  We've turned opinions into crimes the past few years

  Daily, we see people getting punished and deplatformed simply for their opinions. So it's not surprising she's this delusional. Our entire society has been made delusional to prepare them to vote the way the corporations want them to vote. She's simply prepared to be told what to do. This is what the Manchurian Voter looks like.

  Re:

  The FBI literally lied about where the dossier came from, despite knowing. They were acting on orders from the Obama DOJ. I don't know what point you are trying to make, but it doesn't matter anymore.

  Re:

  Did they reaarange deck chairs on the titanic and attempt a straw man argument? I'm not sure. That wasn't in Mueller's report.

  Re:

  The Mueller Report contains the proof that the DNC lawyer paid for the fake DNC dossier. I'd assume that's good enough.

  I don't matter that much. I'm flattered though.

  Re: Brain optional

  Fun Fact: Because the FBI forged documents, almost all of those convictions will get overturned now. Only Manafort's might stick.

  Re: Re: Potentially illegal surveillance program?

  You tell me. The FBI's major activity for two years has been firing idiots that pretended a fake dossier was real.
