that's always the excuse you guys use
Dafuq are u going on about m8?????????
MUH SOURCES AND METHODS
it's a huge deal , and it's a major tension between the various agencies, especially NSA and everybody else
I understand that it's a huge deal, very convenient excuse
Whatever
Time to /ignore reality
That’s good
That's just what it is man, you can call anything a convenient excuse if you want, but that's what those people have to go through. The expediency of allowances should be flexible enough to handle severe issues. writing laws around is very difficult
The LEO often want as much power as possible, to make their jobs easier, the Civil advocates want as little as possible, the pure spooks are ambivilent because they will just do it anyway under national security rubrick, etc
oversight takes forever
it's a lot
I get it, you're an IC apologist, you don't want to give up the power you have
or they have
IC is not one blob, it depends on which angle you are talking about. Many are both, many are members of EFF like me
to simplify, for 'domestic crime', as little as possible
wasn't EFF for net neutrality?
Mostly, a very sophisticated view of it
lol
of course
I don't agree with their position on it actually
I argue the hardware sovereignity position
they argue 'the other side'
Ur mom is very sophisticated
the EFF testimony is sophisticated because it tries to explain how the routing works on the internet, something they understand very well. many of the 'pop culture' views on it were a bit basic imo
Google supporting it is all I need to know that it was evil
it's not evil, but they have an incentive to want something similar to class a mail, since a major part of their costs are bandwidth
anything that gives the government more authority is evil
not at all, gov is a major tool for fighting evil. it can be abused and some govs can be evil. baby and bathwater situation
there is an equilibrium that we crossed long ago
It's just an organizational tool, when we start saying 'everything the gov does is evil', we walk right into a trap set by some of the more evil peolpe out there, who want no check on their power etc.
I don't think it's an equilibrium seeking system
that's part of the problem
the 'balanced scales' metaphor is very bad in most social cases
I think you're a bot that is programmed to disagree with everything I say
it mistakes a complex system for an ordered system, which very few social systems are
the earth is spherical in shape
DOES NOT COMPUTE
Hey it’s shot here
GG @I/IgnoreReality, you just advanced to level 1!
