@Strufa american tech companies are forced to build backdoors into your stuff.

2019-01-31 00:31:46 UTC  

cuz they're the only people announcing it

2019-01-31 00:31:48 UTC  

I have so many books on my to read list

2019-01-31 00:31:52 UTC  

@Achlys there are low security prisons as well, not all are high security. They have them do roadwork, remote work like data entry and other menial tasks

2019-01-31 00:32:02 UTC  

lets stop the theorical bullshit since economy its not a science and lets evaluate the real world impact

2019-01-31 00:32:03 UTC  

@Strufa get some quality swiss products for example instead

2019-01-31 00:32:06 UTC  

Just empty your to read list and read Thomas Sowell.

2019-01-31 00:32:09 UTC  

A guy at work wants me to read notes form underground, the Marxist discord wants me to read anti Oedipus

2019-01-31 00:32:11 UTC  

Then I finally have someone to talk to.

2019-01-31 00:32:18 UTC  

that goes for both hard and software

2019-01-31 00:32:24 UTC  

@Redneo not "forced" sometimes its from government subsidizing them to do so, others its china.

2019-01-31 00:32:39 UTC  

the NSA wants backdoors in everything

2019-01-31 00:32:47 UTC  

Indeed

2019-01-31 00:32:48 UTC  

All of my hardware has become software with growing age.

2019-01-31 00:32:53 UTC  

the absolute free market its literally anarchism and that shit doesnt work

2019-01-31 00:32:55 UTC  

for "counter-terrorism"

2019-01-31 00:33:15 UTC  

@Strufa what do you mean "doesnt work"?

2019-01-31 00:33:19 UTC  

I mean sweet shit Australia banned all forms of encryption

2019-01-31 00:33:21 UTC  

>inb4 "Read Marx"

2019-01-31 00:33:22 UTC  

at achieving WHAT exactly?

2019-01-31 00:33:32 UTC  

a society that dont suck?

2019-01-31 00:33:36 UTC  

@EndangeredProdigy I don't think it's quite like that

2019-01-31 00:33:42 UTC  

@stedly when was marx an ancap?

2019-01-31 00:33:42 UTC  

It's not an absolute free market, because it's not a market at all if there are no rules.

2019-01-31 00:33:46 UTC  

literally what communism falied to do many times

2019-01-31 00:33:51 UTC  

Lots of Australian laws are poorly understood outside of Australia

2019-01-31 00:34:00 UTC  
2019-01-31 00:34:07 UTC  

Freedom does not mean I club someone over the head.

2019-01-31 00:34:17 UTC  

@EndangeredProdigy its been banned in the US for a long time

2019-01-31 00:34:21 UTC  

We can look at tiny titty porn, but if we're accused of a sexual crime it's legally permissible as evidence

2019-01-31 00:34:37 UTC  

thats why truecrypt was shut down only for development to continue in switzerland

2019-01-31 00:34:40 UTC  

Two people not clubbing each other over the head but engaging of free will is a state of more freedom than one taking the liberty to coerce another.

2019-01-31 00:34:48 UTC  

@Redneo lol does it deem a response though. I guess one can actually argue that Karl Marx is in fact the first AnCap.

2019-01-31 00:35:02 UTC  

it's not fully banned in the US, it's requested that there are backdoors

2019-01-31 00:35:13 UTC  

but Australia took it a step further

2019-01-31 00:35:24 UTC  

EXTRME TECH!

2019-01-31 00:35:25 UTC  

If in doubt, always quote Friedman.

2019-01-31 00:35:25 UTC  

@EndangeredProdigy well if there are backdoors its not secure now, is it?

2019-01-31 00:35:33 UTC  

no, but not all tech has a backdoor
