#32Really, it always was, but it was a sort of "undeclared war". Now there's really no question about what's going on, so it's time for the gloves to come off.

#34I don't even know anymore. We're gonna have to raise the bar on what it means to be a "tinfoil hatter"; the original definition has become reality. "Trust no one! Suspect EVERYTHING!" , I can say today without sounding crazy. Also, remember this? http://www.linuxfoundation.org/news-media/blogs/browse/2011/... ....hmm, I wonder if....
Meanwhile the way Bruce Schneier is now using GPG is really only one conceptual leap away from full-blown Tinfoil Hat Linux usage: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinfoil_Hat_Linux The difference between "tinfoil hatters" and reasonable people like Bruce Schneier now seems to be how concerned they are with their ability to destroy a harddrive, and TEMPEST.
Which way is that?
Also, from your Tinfoil Hat Linux link, this idea is hilariously awesome:
Keystroke monitoring — THL has gpggrid, a wrapper for GPG that lets you use a video game style character entry system instead of typing in your passphrase. Keystroke loggers get a set of grid points, not your passphrase.
I wonder if it might be possible to implement that idea into other operating systems?

Of course, none of these "theories" manage to address the fact that there is fairly strong evidence that water fluoridation does in fact reduce tooth decay.

#39So this paragraph of the news report suggests that sometimes Anonymous and the FBI can be united in the goal of stopping child pornography, although not united in how they try to deal with it.
Re: FBI Admits It Controlled Tor Servers Behind Mass Malware Attack
#40"Freedom Hosting has long been notorious for allowing child porn to live on its servers. In 2011, the hactivist collective Anonymous singled out the service for denial-of-service attacks after allegedly finding the firm hosted 95 percent of the child porn hidden services on the Tor network. In the hearing yesterday, Donahue said the service hosted at least 100 child porn sites with thousands of users, and claimed Mar…
