How are they going to MITM communications with certs that never left my machine? Are you suggesting they broke TLS or that they've somehow acquired every private cert generated?
How closely have you reviewed your browser's list of default trusted CAs?

>mythos allowed mediocre people to get results by holding their hand through the process Isn't this what technology progress looks like? Industrial tools allowed mediocre people to improve their productivity by orders of magnitude which is how we managed(in the past) to build so many amazing things with less human toil and suffering than previous generations.
Progress isn't always welcome by the incumbent who have built their moats on hoarding knowledge over being adaptable

> Everyone lost access. Yes. But unlike the rest of us, NSA didn't have to if the administration had thought about it for 30 seconds before sending their letter. It's a stupid own-goal.
Americans didn't have to lose access either. It was Anthropic who chose to cut access to more people than they needed to.
I have no doubt they're working on a passport submission flow as fast as they can now.

The constitution limits a lot of things that this administration has done regardless.
I hear you but, the Patriot act was the gateway. View it as a spectrum from then and how the Administration is now, and suddenly what the Donald is doing doesn't even seem bad: it seems on par for the dystopian road-map laid out long ago (I can't speak for before 9/11)

> How are they going to MITM communications with certs that never left my machine? The long game. They: - make sure you wouldn't be in a position to need to transmit data anywhere that would receive it without CA's in their hypothetical pocket - manage the evolution of the cloud industry to make sure portable VM's and Containers can have their data archived (both in-RAM, disk, hey just send us the running VM!) - back…
And you're saying "they" (red flag) have done this with every cert generated?

If you're a specific target of a nation-state level actor, things get worse; they just grab your hardware mid-shipment on its way to you.

'Mythos “broke into almost all of our classified systems, not in weeks, but in hours.”' Is Mythos a significant danger? The curl experience does not suggest that hysteria is warranted, but this gives me pause.
