And that's fine, I'm willing to accept that the world is full of people who hate freedom.

I have no doubt that the positions you paint as more acceptable than mine are an existential threat.

>Whatever it takes to ensure you and those who agree with you never, ever get any foothold in the discourse, let alone power

Luckily the likes of you lost already. Trumps idiocy pretty much ensured that we'll get a real fight rather than a polite march into the dystopian surveillance nightmare you wish for.

There's no-one seriously trying to turn down the temperature, the fight is going to happen. I'm armed to the teeth (in the EU!) and ready to do my best to ensure that the good guys win.

That's not even close to their main product, who cares?

You went from "license plate readers, stationary cameras, and panic buttons abound" in the article to "panic buttons", feels a bit dishonest.

>The crime is detrimental to innocent people, and although mass surveillance should not be the answer, it can only be fought through democratic processes.

Mass surveillance is detrimental to innocent people and to democratic processes.

Anyone deliberately facilitating that certainly deserves the worst fate imaginable. These are tools tailor-made to destroy democracies, we should treat people behind them like we treat ISIS.

It's downright trivial to hide a backdoor in a codebase like this.

This seems utterly pointless to worry about. You're fucked either way if you trust VLC.

What's up with people insisting that you need a lawyer to respond to a DMCA notice? That's some hilariously poor advice, like holy shit. I wonder if these same (presumably) rich idiots also hire a lawyer to read the terms of service when signing up for a service?

You absolutely do not need and should not spend money on a lawyer for this. The only way you're possibly going to get in trouble is if you're acting in bad faith, you don't need a lawyer to tell you if you are.

Just wait till OP learns about Accurint!

And Israel keeps millions of Palestinians in large concentration camps.

It's hard to imagine what sort of sick mind would consider the Saudi treatment of minorities to be worse. It's abhorrent, but it doesn't come anywhere close to how Israel treats people.

Besides, the whole concept of "Israeli arabs" is a bit hilarious. How are those different from other Palestinian arabs? Is it just that Israeli state considers them more acceptable than other arabs based on some arbitrary standards not grounded on physical reality?

>do you hate Russians?

Shoot every single Russian who supports the war.

>You hate on Jews

Israel is actively a bad actor, many of the ones you listed are not.

>All of them are much more clear cut than Israel that defends itself since 1948

It's dishonest to suggest that Israel was in any way defending itself in 1948, given that it's very creation was an act of aggression.

Despite a plenty of opportunities, Israel has never taken a step back to reset that. Because of that, Israel remains the aggressor.

Yitzhak Rabin perhaps tried and was rewarded with two bullets for his efforts. The Jewish supremacist who killed him is widely celebrated as a hero in Israel.

Oh, and when Rabin was killed it was the fourth assassination attempt by jewish supremacists that year. Now those same people run the country.

Stuff being bought went from commodities that could be produced by anyone to state-of-the-art black magic that only a select few might be able to deliver in the future. It's not surprising that the leverage has shifted towards the supply side.

I assume it's not unusual for thieves to brag about their scores.

>Israeli Arabs also have way higher standard of life than all of other Arab countries

That's just a lie. A plenty of Khaleejis live in socialist paradise

Do you think those 2 million arabs would be particularly upset if the Israeli state ceased to exist?

>hate consumes you

I hate a legal structure and it's supporters. Yeah. Aren't I a bad person.

>You are a bigot

Not at all.

>A bigot is a person who is obstinately, unreasonably, or unfairly attached to their own beliefs, prejudices, or opinions, particularly regarding race, religion, or politics

It's not in any way unfair to despise people who still support Israel after nearly a century of crimes against humanity.

That'd be a fair criticism if I subscribed to some traditional antisemitic views, but I don't really have any inherent problem with the jewish people. I just want the destruction of the state of Israel and any who would support it, it's purely coincidental that this includes most jewish people.
