Well I don&#x27;t think a society problem can be fixed with cryptography.<p>Diogenes messages is clear: the less you need in order to be happy, the more free you are.<p>The first spying system seems to be in your brain not in the nature of the world, and it is called moral judgement; useless thoughts that make you vulnerable.<p>You can shield yourself more around your vulnerabilities (crypto), or you can totally accept to give up on your vulnerabilities (shameless UK&#x2F;US).<p>Maybe giving up on moral crap and living as we really are would solve the problem much more than spending useless money on this topic.<p>Being shameless= 0$ (poor&#x27;s weapon), good crypto = ...M$ (wealthy kid&#x27;s weapon)<p>Sometimes I pledge for a clear business analysis for highlighting stupid ideas.<p>People claim they need crypto just in case they need to revolt (China...) and they cannot revolt against stupid stuff because they don&#x27;t have tools. For being more free.<p>But being more free is above all a state of mind. And believing that submitting to more (technical) constraint is a necessity to be more free seems very idiotic to me. I think it a technical solution to a shared nevrosis of some illuminated developers that never took the time to open &quot;good old paper books&quot;. Crypto is a shield to protect a vulnerability that can be avoided by accepting to wank in the public space.<p>Hey, geektarded, there are libraries with SMALL DATA. Pieces of knowledge written in intelligible way. It is called books.<p>Of course, you have then 2500 years worth of books about &quot;the social contract&quot;, political science on how to solve the need to accept our differences (ourselves) and how to share a public space.<p>But I guess, coders suffer NIH syndroma since their hubris is exploding the standard reference set by Narciss. They seem to ignore old pieces of knowledge.<p>Sometimes, IT is making media more efficient to distribute shitload of new non information at the detriment of our past cultures that are loaded with a lot of them.<p>It is time for being a Luddite.
