Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 6-4-2017

Hmmm … 

Did I mention I rarely make use of illegal stuff on the ’Net?

He says … !

I’m ALSO the kind of person who has nothing hide.

I wouldn’t know how to access the Dark Net’s famed ability to let you buy all sorts of illegal stuff.

But … ?

I value the fact that — if I’ve understood the law correctly — the Government has no power to read anything I do online.

NOR access any encrypted messages I send with things like iMessage, or Snapchat.

However?

The Government are planning to remedy that.   By adding powers to a bill, demanding a back-door to those messages.

AND the ability to do real time surveillance of people’s internet based communications.

At least, according to this piece.

Personally?

I realise there’s good arguments for doing so.

But … ?

There’s the online privacy thing.

I don’t think a government should be able to turn itself into Big Brother: by violating my privacy.

Or yours, come to that matter.

Personally?

I’m thinking it’s time to dig up my copy of Tor.

I think the Government wants to violate my privacy, and read over my shoulder.

That’s rude: if nothing else.
