Re: Only one possible solution

I may only have a passing familiarity with the concept of American democracy limited to what I've read in my school textbooks and wikipedia, but I'm pretty sure having sex with the right people does not mean you get a get out of jail free card for ... well I am reminded of the time I was perusing 4chan as I infrequently do and there was a short video of deep fake Hillary Clinton on a guy wearing bondage gear. Yes... bait: like this really happens (knowing full well it does). Then progress to saying pedophilia is just being thrown around. Why make a big deal of pedophilia if all the lesser misdeeds can result in removal from a job? (Gamergate was the strangest conflation of ethics in gaming journalism with jilted lovers) This is totally ludicrous, at least all the blackmail victims could just close ranks and deny if they weren't all repeat offenders. And so the world leans on a precipice as everyone in charge has a time preference of about ten minutes or less.

Vermont: Year in prison for anyone under 21 in possession of cell phone - tentative legislation
by Zenaan Harkness 13 Jan '20

13 Jan '20

OK, so this is genuine, legitimate anti terror legislation being discussed and "genuinely considered" at the USA state level - Vermont in particular. "How daft! Surely they'll never get -that- one through?!#?" Not so fast grasshopper. After a day of mulling over such stupidity, a lonely neurone finally fired and the dawning of "Oh, they're really targetting legislated encryption back doors/ front doors, not banning of mobile phones" crossed a lonely synapse. "Ahr sooo ooo oles!" I hear you cry. This new strategy may actually be quite effective folks: - begin with legislation at state level, not federal, thus minimizing the protester base; - have a "genuine" problem: “The Internet and social media, accessed primarily through cell phones, are used to radicalize and recruit terrorists, fascists, and other extremists… Cell phones have often been used by mass shooters of younger ages for research on previous shootings.” - handle the reaction of folks to the moronic version of the legislation ("We ARE banning all mobile phones for all under 21 year olds, with up to 1 YEAR jail time for violations!") with your sigh of relief "sane" legislation: "Oh! <laughing> Of COURSE! How silly were we - yes you may keep your mobile phones - we'll just put this one little legislated back door in every comms app, the OS, the baseband OS, the CPU, the SOC, the Ethernet chip, the network stack ... and possibly also in the app store." ("Kidding, kidding - nothing to worry about, we had most of those installed for a few years now anyway, so don't let it bother you none, OK little snowflake?") - target the "maximum likelihood, minimum kickback" state, in this case Vermont: "The bill concludes that since the Vermont government has seen fit to ban under 21 use of cigarettes, alcohol, and firearms, this is the logical next step." Soap, legislated comms backdoors/ front doors in all mobile phones, starting in the backwater which almost no one ever heard of, Vermont. Suck it up buttercup. Absurdity Alert: Vermont Considers Cell Phone Ban For Under-21s, Punishable By Prison https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/tech-giant-doesnt-want-anyone-offend… https://legislature.vermont.gov/Documents/2020/Docs/BILLS/S-0212/S-0212%20A… Seriously, does anyone have any possible solutions to this kind o crazy which is on the way?

I've sucked off several major politicians and army generals and they tell me this current spot of trouble is going to be no big problem. Maybe they are only saying that to be re-invited to the orgy and keep their jobs, which none of them deserve.
