Will any of this really make any difference? I feel that, in the long run, it won't. Edit: And to further clarify my question (since I'm being down-voted for a very legitimate question)... I know a lot of smart people and none of them (as in 0 of them) seem to take any notice to these conversations. There is a lot of apathy towards mass surveillance. Sure, the conversation comes up a lot on HN but HN is not a very go…

It won't if you push an attitude like that.

An attitude? This stuff seems to happen again and again throughout history. Me asking this may bring root cause problems to the conversation too.

You would think the world view of a large number of people would have changed considering things like the cold war with the U.S.S.R, Iran-Contra, Bay-of-Tonkin, etc. If it had, mass surveillance would be a lot more prevalent in every day communication.

You should have a little faith in humanity. Just give it some time.

This is a Youtube/GEMA issue, however: [1]

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There is an argument though, that this issue is so deeply ingrained that we need a rather rebellious approach to actually change anything... What's more appropriate for a rebellious movement than rebellious leaders? Just a thought...

Maybe with less rape? I'd settle for that at this point.

KDC or Glenn Greenwald raped anybody?

Has Assange been convicted of rape?

Has a charge even been brought?
