Hello all, "scientist" (PhD candidate) here in the field of computer
   science and cyber security.

   Most of the scientists I have encountered are not totally malicious,
   just oblivious to the moral, ethical and political consequences of
   their work. They are blind enough to believe that their "advances" help
   society, despite them actually shifting the balance of power away from
   the people.

   There are a few, however, who do what they can to shift power back into
   the hands of the people. I was greatly influenced by a paper by Phil
   Rogaway entitled "On the moral character of cryptographic work," and I
   try my best to do research that works for the benefit of the people,
   not governments or wealthy power holders. Only time will tell if I am
   successful, but I will do my best.

   There are others who also work with morals in mind. It is not so black
   and white as "scientists are evil people working for fascists." They
   are just unaware of the consequences of their work.

             It's obvious that all 'scieniists' working for the state are
             parasites working for fascist states. Perhaps you need to
             research the nature of the political system you live in a
     bit
             more?

             I thought it was clear that any dissenter gets silenced or
             ignored. So you could have saved yourself the
     misrepresentatin.
             It's not 'every' one, just the majority.
             On the other hand, I'm familiar with 'libertarian'
             anti-conspiracy bullshit, so you could save it too
     for...other
             audiences.
