  • New poll says public sides with Apple over FBI in resisting iPhone unlock order

    ezdiv said:
    We have such short memories.  Once again we're one big terror attack in the US away from everyone then complaining about why the government hasn't done enough to protect us.  Well they're (gov) trying to do something but we don't want to unlock a freakin' phone?!  Come on people.  Get over yourselves.  No one cares about your uninteresting personal lives.
    The majority of gun owners in the United States do not own guns as part of a plan for armed revolution against the US government, they do so for personal protection from criminals who would harm them and their families.

    Likewise, the majority of smartphone owners who encrypt their phones do not do it to hide their information from the government, they do so for personal protection from those who would steal that information and use it steal the person's identity and money and harm them and their family.

    Why are Americans comfortable allowing everyone to own guns knowing that criminals use them to kill people, but they oppose allowing everyone to use encryption because criminals will also use encryption?

    As the NRA loves to say about guns, when encryption is made illegal only criminals will have encryption.

  • FBI director says iPhone unlock demands are limited, won't 'set a master key loose'

    Comey has been talking for years about smartphone encryption and how smartphone encryption should be illegal.  Now he says, "I hope folks will take a deep breath and stop saying the world is ending."  The FBI director doth protest too much, methinks.

  • After citing $53M in personal debt, Kanye West begs fans to subscribe to Tidal

    A shining example of the Millennial mindset. If you want to read some really weird stuff, read the series of tweets that follow his $53 million in debt tweet. He's a laughable idiot.
    A shining example of old person mindset, or "young people are so stupid".  This guy is almost 40 and not a Millennial.  Running up huge amounts of debt are the hallmarks of the Baby Boomers and Gen X.  Your generations literally caused the banking system to collapse from all of your irresponsible debt resulting in a massive government bailout scheme all while the Millennial generation was too young to even get a credit card.  In other words, go f yourself.
