How law enforcement gets around your smartphone’s encryption
by professor rat 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Law enforcement has significant help from assets located in outside areas such as John Hopkins and Conde Nast. However the crypto ' arms race ' continues to favor the cypherpunk. We see that when a head-pig like Jim Comey starts squealing about CLIPPER TWO. Since that didn't win him any new fans it must be assumed the Fucking Bureaucratic Imbeciles ( FBI ) are still paying beaucoup dollars for Apple crackers. TL/DR the cryptoanarchist revolution continues to spread around the world - increasingly even being helped by govts like red-fascist China's and socialist institutions like the pentagon - then, certain LEO morons and nosebleed types like Nuclear Wintour, don't like this which is very good. We will win.

Someone is wrong on the internet

First off it is " crypto-anarchy ' not ' crypto-privacy ". Second - Eric Hughes was a cowardly traitor who defected soon after 9-11 Third - taking a snapshot of Btc as it is shows its not as it was - nor what it could be. Fourth - its usually the worst charlatans and quacks that quote Marx approvingly. Finally - the excellent is the enemy of the good. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-has-become-nothing-but-the-new-che-g…

Another thing that is incredibly important is having immutable records of what these algorithms have done. Facebook lets me download my history, but not of how their algorithms have treated me, only of what I have posted. > I don't trust corporations here.
