If you're not running for Political Office in Germany, yes it is. Same goes for any other country, including the USA. Until then, they will simply overrule you and not give a shit about your pithy little sign waving protests, wannabe online activism, and low dollar lobbying... you're deleted, you're not really competition they have to care about. Re-educating the public masses out from under childhood indoctrination is a decades slow process, infiltrating your self / agenda into Office is much faster... witness them doing it every election cycle ;) Or you could try in the open like Free State Project / Pirate Party. When Facebook, Google, Governments and whatever other anti-privacy surveillors data brokers/miners, spies, control force freaks, taxing thieves for war torture murder... go bankrupt, you win. Win you open multiple fronts, writing and/or vetoing laws to help do it, it'll happen a bit faster... if you're actually not, or don't become, one of them... which is rare... as no revolution in history has ever lasted... yet. " European Police Congress: Away with the Darknet At the European Police Congress in Berlin, a ban on Darknets in free democratic states was called for. To start on one's own behalf is supposedly bad style. But this note is necessary this time: heise online operates since 2016, the hot tipster, which is accessible, inter alia, via Tor and whistleblowers a secure contact address in this "Darknet" allows, which was used several times. No room for Tor If the current federal government decides, then this may be a criminal offense in the future. At the opening of the 22nd European Police Congress in Berlin, Günter Krings, Parliamentary State Secretary in the Federal Ministry of the Interior, demanded a radical ban on Tor: "I understand why the Darknet can be of use in autocratic systems, but in a free, open democracy, I think for no legitimate benefits, those who use the Darknet are usually up to no good, and this simple realization should also be reflected in our legal system. " The needs of whistleblowers have no place in the world view of Krings, which demanded a second IT security law, which should be implemented later this year. In the remainder of his speech, the CDU politician was primarily concerned with the SPD-led Ministry of Justice, which in his view, the propagated pact for the rule of law systematically undermines and delays. It would have long been possible to settle the question of what should happen to German jihad fighters who want to get rid of Kurds and Syrians, said the State Secretary. However, Krings praised the tool RADAR-iTE, which reliably identifies and classifies Islamists on a three-level scale. Krings was followed in the opening ceremony by Wolfgang Sobotka, President of the Austrian National Council. He praised China for not having any inhibitions and successfully ignoring data protection when analyzing citizens. His statement that there is a human right to political asylum, but no human right to asylum for economic or social reasons, fit into the picture he drew. European Border Patrol ... "

RF Hacking Banned and Cashless Fiat Loving Statists

https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/03/11/eu_directive_ban_rf_radio_firmware… The EU is looking to block users from tinkering the firmware/software of their RF devices. This seems to have been very under reported, with a fairly short consultation period that has now expired. It could force manufacturers to lock down phones and routers etc to stop you from installing the likes of Lineage OS or OpenWRT. The way this is written it could stop devices like laptops or Raspberry Pi's having their software changed. From the report: The controversy centres on Article 3(3)(i) of the EU Radio Equipment Directive, which was passed into law back in 2014. However, an EU working group is now about to define precisely which devices will be subject to the directive -- and academics, researchers, individual "makers" and software companies are worried that their activities and business models will be outlawed. Article 3(3)(i) states that RF gear sold in the EU must support "certain features in order to ensure that software can only be loaded into the radio equipment where the compliance of the combination of the radio equipment and software has been demonstrated." If the law is implemented in its most potentially harmful form, no third-party firmware could be installed onto something like a home router, for example. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/talkingtech/2019/03/09/dont-ditch-cash-… https://news.slashdot.org/story/19/03/11/050247/usa-today-tech-columnist-mi… "I haven't had a nickel, dime, quarter or penny in my pocket for two years," writes USA Today tech columnist Jefferson Graham, adding "Why bother? We're now living in what's quickly becoming a cashless society, where credit cards or electronic payments on your phone rule." His column is addressed to the mayor of Philadelphia, who this week signed a bill that bans cashless stores. Mr. Mayor. It's happening all over the world, and not just from Amazon. We are going cashless. Maybe not in your lifetime, but certainly for millennials. Banks and credit card companies want this to curb the costs of handling green. Selected merchants are into it now... USA Today's Charisse Jones discovered that cash purchases were down to 30 percent of all retail transactions as of last year compared to 40 percent in 2012. Millennials, she noted here this week, are saying no to cash, with 21 percent of those 23- to 34 years old saying that most of their transactions were in cash in 2016.... Mobile pay is still a sliver of overall retail sales, but it's definitely on the rise. Target, a long holdout, just added Apple Pay to one of its options, following in the footsteps of Best Buy, CVS, Costco and other retail giants who now accept payment via iPhone. The big, lone holdout right now is Walmart, the No. 1 retailer. It does have its own mobile pay app, that links bank payments to QR codes. And Mr. Mayor, good news for you. Walmart still accepts cash, too. But for how long?

Rather than express the usual ritual contrition, how about this: I'm on television every weeknight live for an hour. If you want to know what I think, you can watch. Anyone who disagrees with my views is welcome to come on and explain why. [classy response!]

Wikileaks by US Politician Gabbard
by grarpamp 11 Mar '19

11 Mar '19

@TulsiGabbard: "If the government can change the designation of @Wikileaks from being a news organization (Obama Admin’s designation of Wikileaks) to a hostile intelligence agency (Trump Admin’s designation), then any entity – online and offline – is in danger of being designated a ‘hostile intelligence service’ if they carry out investigative reporting that the US government or a particular administration considers to be hostile to itself. This will have a chilling effect on investigative reporting of powerful government agencies or officials, including the president, intel agencies, etc. This is a serious breach of our constitutional freedoms and every American – Democrat, Republican or Independent – must stand up against it." This one doesn't seem to understand or mind breaching Constitutional Freedoms... https://www.votetulsi.com/node/25028 US election cycle starting up... history shows endless streams of liars and hypocrites seek the podium... stock up on popcorn.
