They found more pipe bombs in a bedroom inside Mr. Spafford’s house, loosely stuffed in a backpack that bore a patch shaped like a hand grenade and a logo reading “#NoLivesMatter,” prosecutors said.
No Lives Matter is a nihilistic, far-right ideology that largely exists on encrypted online messaging apps like Telegram
Get used to it, that’s the next rhetoric. If the government can’t read it and filter it, they’re going to try to stamp it out over the next few years.
Actually the FBI has been recommending people use more secure communications lately due to Chinese spying through SMS network infrastructure.
That was knee-jerk because we can’t do shit about the espionage. As we go down the slippery slope of authoritarianism, their ability to see everything we say will become paramount to them.
Were at the bottom of that slope already and halfway up the fascist dictatorship slope.
Although they recommend WhatsApp, which is owned and controlled by Meta. I’d be surprised if they don’t have access to that.
That part’s not new, that started in 2001. But journalists specifically have a vested interest in having secure and private communication. It’s not in their interest to equate it with terrorism.
Implying most “journalists” at msm outlets actually do any investigative journalism instead of just reiterate what they’re told from law enforcement agencies. See the Luigi manifesto for a recent example lol
How journalists don’t just slide into PGP, I’ll never know.
Idk how all companies don’t post public keys for anyone representing them to their website. We’re seeing so many scams these days, from fake recruiters with bogus job offers, to fake lawyers filing bogus takedowns. The ability to prove you are affiliated with who you say you are is a solved problem, none of these scams should be possible, people just don’t realize it.
There’s a whole working system that exists. All it would have taken is for Google and Microsoft to use it.
Both companies use it to sign software they distribute. They just don’t use it to sign correspondence they distribute.
