    This over reach is so terrifying it's almost funny. Always use a VPN and/or Tor.

    FB is inherently evil and must be stopped at all costs. And your last part about giving those two groups a platform: so fucking what? Those groups are much more prestigious than ou…

    I have some fresh boot soup I can offer you? With a side of steel-toe.

    I'd say this is very thoughtful and rational, and if I was the owner of the site in question, I would be thankful for poweruser comments.

    Why is this not on the front page?

    What use is the DEA to normal, everyday Americans?

    At this point, if you can't see how fucked up the US legal system is, I am sorry. Federal court has in the 90 percent conviction rate. Is it because they have such air tight cases …

    Well thanks, I did not know that about ZT.

    Well, I would complain too if I worked there! A modern VPN outside of the workplace is used for anonymity. I'm not sure what some people are saying when they state a VPN isn't usef…

    Would be awesome after you make some money back if you could open hardware it for those of us who require full trust!

    It's so pathetic, everything 'terrorist' these days purely means what the government/private corporation doesn't like.

    That has to be the most lame excuse I've ever heard, at least it's funny!

    What if I were to make encrypted phones and software for high net worth individuals and celebrities?

    I certainly agree with you. I just posted a few days ago saying I would never trust this company. In fact, I would never trust a company that didn't explicitly state that the compa…

    These kinds of compensations are not unheard of at all in tech. While I'm not making quite as much as OP, I am coming close.

    Yeah, that is pretty rough. I've been in similar situations and I tell my self to just try to be a better person today than to dwell over the past. I can't change what I've done bu…

    Completely uncensored communication is really the only way forward. We do not know what will be illegal tomorrow which was legal today. And if you do not morally agree with the law…

    It is sick what people do to our children. This is an egregious example of why it should be very illegal to do any type of surveillance without clear consent from all parties. Even…

    All the big nation's pull this, unfortunately. Just some take longer to be reported on. We need to demand accountability for the countries that supply, and use these tools of terro…

    I trust my versions of Linux infinitely more times than anything corporate made, despite the claims, just as you succinctly said.

    That's pretty useful, thanks. I can setup a monitor (FOSS) for the computer that is doing the site monitoring, since I only use open source software that I can inspect.

    I'm not sure with this instance but I do know that people complained since CF is the antithesis of privacy and the free internet.

    AU needs to be stopped. Resources should be put to this.

    You got played. Just remember to never trust marketing in the future and always read the fine print, no matter how long it may be.
