How is that supposed to help? Go sell snake oil elsewhere, recommending this stuff actually puts peoples lives at risk.
The only thing putting people at risk is portraying privacy as suspicious. Everyone should use a VPN.
How about we refer people to actual privacy tools like Tor instead?
Oddly I can't find any other sources reporting this. I'd have expected it to show up in at least one other place else (e.g. BBC news for example). I'm not trying to imply that it's not accurate, I'm just confused by the lack of info. And the article doesn't really reference anything other than other zdnet articles, so it's really hard to tell exactly what form of the act got passed - did all the really controversial…
Will the citizens allow it to be passed if they knew about it via some news source? Of course "news" now a days is about kardarshians or justin beiber than about things that requires serious attention. This may have hardly got tiny little square cm area in newspapers or 30 seconds air time. Thus sinks democracy. People who are informed are way less in number than non-informed people, but all get to vote thus diluting…

Targeted attacks by intelligence agencies and police forces are probably a lost battle anyway.

Yeah right, because using PIA==privacy. How about we refer people to actual privacy tools like Tor instead?

Which is why we need to push as many people as possible to use VPN's, they already have too much straw and too few needles so lets give them even more straw. The reality is that no one in the know thinks this has anything to do with terrorism and everything to do with political control. If you don't have the right to privacy then all other rights are subverted, previous governments have used the state security appara…
