  • Well the way I view it is it’s all useless. If a 10 year old goes to buy a phone, they can’t do so without getting money from an adult who therefore approved of it. If a 15 year old buys a cell phone they can’t… Because they need an adult to have a credit card/bank that allows monthly payments. Only offered to an adult. If you are a minor you can only get one with an adults co-sign. Thus the idea that a child has access to the Internet without an adults consent is just untrue 99.9 percent of the time. schools monitor the traffic . So every situation comes down to negligence on the parent. Who will sign their account in, or their credit card on the kids phone… bypassing all reason for the laws



  • From the GOPs point of view they won all of them. This war will be no different. The world will call it a loss because the U.S. won’t take control of Iran and hold it permanently, which the U.S. never has any intent of holding these countries permanently. They don’t care how many soldiers die, they don’t even really care who ends up controlling that area when they leave. Did they destabilize the region and get approval to funnel mass amounts of money into defense company contracts. Yes and yes. U.S. oil comes from the U.S. yet gas prices are rising in the U.S., why… Because wars with countries that control oil elsewhere help line the pockets of oil companies who fund these politicians campaigns. If you have oil, lift it at costs less than the U.S. and don’t have nuclear weapons, you are a target to exploit. It’ll raise costs for every working class sod in the world, but they couldn’t give a shit about us. They are winning. We are losing.








  • Someone could point out where I am wrong but essentially it is the same as a standard email in that there is a plain text copy stored in both the send and receive instance. Maybe it is easier to think of as just another comment where instead of @domain.xyz has read access, just the specified user@domain.xyz has read access. The server admins could still see them if they wanted to, just like Yahoo, Google, etc can in plain text (which is how SPAM filters often work, as in if the email was actually encrypted they wouldnt know the content inside it to try to filter it out.)

    More end to end options are coming to the fediverse, (Matrix has been around, I saw something last week another was coming) but really most people don’t ever encrypt data they send to others, and don’t care usually.

    See: Epsteins emails being accessible without decrypting anything. There were people who supposedly found his password in the released files, and just logged into outlook or whatever with it. End to end encryption should have required them to have s/mime (handshake performed) on that specific device to see the emails, so it would have all been garbledegook. Aka plaintext was stored on both server ends until deleted by the companies/users.







  • Yeah so they both might be pieces of shit, but without 2/3rds support they cant stop anything. So they would need 75 Republicans in the house and 19 Republican senators to go against Trump.

    The media machines are rolling, and Republicans are already starting to fall in line. They don’t care about the hipocrasy of claiming their leader was a dictator and treats women badly, nor do they care that the nuclear weapon creation shit is lies. They would invade Afghanistan and Iraq again tomorrow to double down on their commitment to hating people who are different looking.

    The Democrats don’t have the numbers to change anything here.
