Far from being the key that will set us free, it's little more than a propaganda platform for those in control, and a pressure-release valve for those who are not.
We are under more surveillance than any other people in history, and governments all over the world have turned this tool against us, and all major hardware and software platforms have backdoors for government access.
How did it get so bad, and why does no one ever care outside of retarded Ted K. fanboys?
>In the post-war period, the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) was formed and participated in programmes such as the Five Eyes collaboration of English-speaking nations. So in other words it was American-led.
Evan Sanchez
Well then your answer is simply 9/11 and the Patriot Act.
Lincoln Edwards
But I remember the UK leading the pack in national surveillance before that, I'm just telling you so you're aware, you sound young.
Record everything everyone does, then decide if they committed a crime later then arrest them for it if they step out of line.
We haven't led any pack since about a year into WW2.
Isaac Foster
Sorry mate, I remember.
I will try to tell you about it, because I remember.
Ethan Ramirez
well we don't have cctv on every street of every city watching us m8
Isaiah Cox
No, but you do have government-mandated backdoors in all your equipment and appliances. Who needs CCTV when you're recording everyone from their pocket?
If anything we're out-of-date.
Eli Hughes
It sounds like you have already made up your mind and you created this thread to vent.
Leo Morales
OK, you red pilled me. The NSA is really British, as is Facebook, Apple, Google, and Microsoft, etc. and Intel is also British, and ME stands for Monarchist Exploitation.
Why are you trying to shift attention away from NSA programs like PRISM?
Julian Young
I'm not you dummy, I've told you 3 times now: 9/11 and Patriot Act. What is the matter with you? Why are you swatting away the right answer?
Aaron Lopez
>Why are you swatting away the right answer? You haven't given me an answer. The only "answer" you've given shows us as your collaborator (though we both know this is a one-sided collaboration).
Aaron Roberts
STFU, you don't know anything and you can't even be spoonfed the answer without paranoid ideation cropping up. Yes we kick your ass at surveillance, we do everything better than you.
