So now that he's no longer being prosecuted by the Swedes, he's available for 
extradition to the US - wonder if that Grand Jury has recently finished putting 
its case together?

More importantly is the easy way for governments to identify those subversive 
types who like to challenge the supremacy of the corporation sponsored state by 
driving their own cars.

Personally I could believe that, in the UK at least, given 5-10 years that EVs 
will be sold in significant numbers and occupying the place in car sales that 
diesels currently occupy with total sales dominance over all car sales in about 
20 years.
Self-Drivers will grow to share a significant amount of market share in that 20 
year timescale.

Of course, I have no qualifications to back up my guesswork so we'll have to 
wait 20 years to see if my guesswork beats Ivy League economists guesswork lol.

Then what is the use of asking someone to write a bubble sort (which has been 
written a million times) - surely you should pick something that hasn't been 
written before?

I must be on the wrong list then, i am not Christian, conservative or pro any 
nation :D

obviously elle-twat wants to derail your sensible questions.

If your encryption is sufficiently strong (ppl seem happy with AES256, any 
better suggestions) and your random number generator wasn't designed or 
influenced by the NSA then you're likely to keep your information private.

Note that you will then become the weak link and if the information is 
sufficiently important then it will get painful :)

In terms of a Windows (you said Outlook) based remailer then I'd see Windows as 
the weak link, especially if its v7/8 or 10.

Cheers.

They hide behind Cloudflare and so become another useful site for gathering

Re: UK: Censors, Tracks and Balkanizes Its Internet; 10yrs for Pirates

The UK Gov has spent two generations indoctrinating people right from birth 
that privacy is only for bad people, big corporations will look after them, gov 
dependency is a good thing, debt is a good thing, politics is of no interest 
and too complicated for them etc etc

Only subversive types would think otherwise and so any of you opposing their 
plans are quite simply extremists and terrorists.

Unless the peoples minds can be 'reprogrammed' then those of us subversive 
types who have somehow avoided being brainwashed will become criminals 
according to the state.

So, Brits on the list, expect a bumpy ride.

Re: flexthismotherfucker

You seem very emotionally attached to sigaint.

As for your comments earlier with regards to morals and ethics, if you provide 
an anti surveillance service then you'd expect a trustworthy service to take a 
very anti-surveillance stance and refuse to deal with corps that are part of 
the surveillance machine.
It is the very basis of who sigaint is and yet they seem happy to be associated 
with Cloudflare, raises questions in my mind about who they really work for or 
how much they care about those they are supposed to serve.

Well obviously all I've said about Cloudflare is well documented but in terms 
of sigaint, its your choice but with the documented issues with Cloudflare then 
I would expect any org who is trying to provide protection against 'dragnet 
surveillance' would be morally and ethically opposed to services such as 
Clouflare, wouldn't you?

Don't have a problem with that as such, just noticed a sudden upswing since the

I'm sure I'm just being paranoid and the Tor management haven't called in

The bottom line is that you DO NOT believe in freespeech but are trying to 
convince yourself and others that you do.

People like you who try to pass off controlled or restricted speech as free 
speech are trying to redefine the term because you are too afraid to accept the 
fact that you want to restrict others rights to suit your own purposes.

True free speech demands that you allow horrible small minded idiots the right 
to say vile things in public so that all unpopular but valid opinions can be 
debated and society can grow.

Truly private speech comes with a freespeech guarantee so thats not an issue.

Public speech is where the attacks on freespeech occur.

The fact is, you either have freespeech or you dont, there is no halfway - that 
is called 'controlled speech'.

The people who are too sensitive to handle freespeech should stop pretending 
they advocate it and accept that they are advocating controlled or limited 
speech.
