The engineering is impressive. The actual information you get out of the technique feels considerably less so.

It's like a game to be the shittiest of the shittiest gov't official playing around with technology to surveillance state (and they never ever just do the right thing, they go all out on breaking the law because technology is fun)

Reads very woke, "it can homogenize thinking among users, reinforcing “dominant styles while marginalizing alternative voices and reasoning strategies"

I feel so old. jQuery was hate/ok early in my career, as I started on the tail end of HTML5/in the middle of ES6 with all the new stuff.

Still would love a geometric chunky bold font, like Circular or Sharp Sans, shame that Geometric Humanist doesn’t have heavier weights.

To limit the attack surface here, maybe follow the permissions model on macOS, access a credential = TouchID/Password each time, just limiting dependencies, still leaves a large attack surface of accessing everything if an attacker is able to find a route through, that’s what they’re looking for is everything right there, somehow some way.

There is so much here to debate about. A) Never trust the cyber feds. B) The NSA is not the place anyone thinks, it’s a Wild West in the most bizarre of places, trust me from experience. C) Cryptology concerns more of than security and exchanging messages or packets, sometimes you don’t even know what kind of thing (living) can and has been decrypted. D) The NSA plays very, very, very dirty. It is like a digital CIA, they are in everything (i.e. cyber spies in various roles at tech/telecom/manufacturer company xyz). E) NEVER LISTEN TO THE DAMN NSA / DRIVEN BY A CULTURE OF EXPLOITATION
