coderman: this is why i consider restrictions on cryptography a rubicon threshold. the moment you deprive people the ability to ensure their privacy (if they accept the personal responsibility to do so) you have effectively declared war against the individual and elevated the state above all by fiat
coderman: crossing the rubicon makes coderman angry... you don't want to see me angry!! rawr!
coderman: also, these technologies give great ability to the public to monitor the government and other organizations for greater accountability and oversight.
also: but the government workers should also be entitled to their privacy? so anonymous govt workers and anonymous citizens ... ???
also: == decentralised govt == infoanarchy
also: <rubicon> oh fuck.
coderman: they are entitled to their privacy in their personal lives. when working on behalf of the public, by employ of the government, their actions and activities should be as transparent as possible.

also: ROFL > RIFLE
also: why can't we ever have cool dictators?!
