  • And that makes @shortwavesurfer@monero.town a trouble maker

    • I swear, I’m just gonna laugh at these clowns, honestly, and just PGP encrypt my messages that they can intercept in plain text. So fuck them. I don’t actually think they will win, but even if they did, it will only hurt law abiding people and will make no a difference to non-law abiding people.

      • Yeah I don't get it. Maybe I'm missing something

        • Working around laws that ban E2E encryption will ultimately be seen as subversive and the legal system will go after people doing this, what part of this is unclear?

          • It is just to break unjust laws. In the case of encryption you are protecting your self from an increasingly authoritarian government

            • And my point was that the increasingly authoritarian government will eventually go after people who are trying to protect themselves in this way.

              • Of course they will why else would you break unjust laws.

                We aren't talking about something that directly harms another. We care talking about sending a private message and if that is against the law the laws should be openly broken.
