it's not really worth reading, unless you want to bathe in the ignorance of this person

here's one quote, that I enjoyed, from the very start of the article:
"And while most pundits at that point still considered Trump the second coming of Herman Cain, a circus act rather than a serious candidate, [Bill] Clinton feared Trump’s ability to channel white-working-class rage. “He’s a master brander and he[’s] sensing sort of the emotional landscape of people he’s selling to,” [Bill] Clinton told donors gathered in Atlanta in October 2015."

except that he used the name of a famous entertainer for effect, and then felt the need to explain himself

one can only hope that all analysts who look at "what democrats need to do to win next time" are as inept as this person

`Mark Blyth argues pretty persuasively that Clinton will run again in 2020 (timestamped)`

`He notes her as central in the "Cersei Lannister Problem: no one else can rule Westeros because I've killed them all, so it has to be me." `

god dammit he's pretty clever as well that mark fucker

guess I should listen to that

I'm not sure these people understand computers

that is to say, I'm absolutely positive these people don't understand computers

well theres not 1 technical word in that article

so that should scream something

well when I say "these people" I am referring to the politicians who wrote the regulation/law

regardless of what it says

well lawmakers will never know the reality of things

disconnected to everything

there's no way to enforce this regulation without actually breaking all encryption for everyone, forever

and you need to disconnect your internet from the rest of the world, and pass everything through a proxy

literally implementing man-in-the-middle on a government level

that's going to be fun

well that wouldnt work out on a technical side

yes it does

well yeah, china

several other nations

it's just incredibly difficult and lots of work, and crazy as fuck

not to mention incompatible with a free democratic constitution, I'd argue

these people have no fucking idea what they're doing

but even then, to implement that youd compromise other factors

"criminals are using encryption, we need to be able to break _their_ encryption but noone elses"

ye no shit dude

[11:33 PM] folk: there's no way to enforce this regulation without actually breaking all encryption for everyone, forever

like the ability for anyone to decrypt your credit card info with no abiity to track down

which would fuck the economy entirely

yes

and directly affect the stock trading market

all their traffic is encrypted

>Governments knowing nothing
Imagine my shock

rofl

hehehe

well, it's not so long ago that the US FBI chief was trying to sell the same lamb

i didnt think the AUD was doing that great?
