I honestly don’t get the point @bsdphk is trying to make here. How is it political engagement OR encryption? queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?ref…

@stilkov Where do you see political engagement right now ? Where are the wise tech-people running for office ? Where are the movements ?

@bsdphk I believe your argument, AFAI understand it, is comparable to security by obscurity

@stilkov No, my argument is that technology is trumped by laws, and the laws are moving in the wrong direction, while nerds fret over tech.

@stilkov Unless we have laws that protect our right to privacy, we won't have privacy, no matter how much encryption we roll out.

@bsdphk But your criticism of wide-spread encryption seems to be centered around the fact that this might lead to anti-encryption laws
