That’s the main and only thing you wanted to respond to from what I wrote?


Your thoughts on E2E are ridiculous, everyone needs E2E for many things they do every day. Isn't it a bit absurd to claim to be in favor of free speech in public, but against private speech?

Or is this copy pasta and I've missed the joke?


I am in favor of free speech in private and in public. I am saying exactly what I said... that this freedom is different than an entire organization giving you an unfiltered megaphone. Do you have some substantive critique or question?


>Even with numerical limits on each person’s audience, a hateful message can attract people who make plans to use technology to asymetrically perpetrate criminal acts. And end-to-end encryption means we won’t know what they’re saying.

Yea why do you feel the need to know everything that is said? You stop just short of calling for back doors in encryption.

>Fbi should honey pot everything

It's a bit weird to be pro free speech and pro Orwellian police state. It seems like a strategy to force people to speak in a certain way, coerced self-censorship. Are you a "government contractor" by chance?


If you had written less, we would have read more!


Not sure if you're being ironic, or are one who simply doesn't read anything but headlines. Hopefully it's the former.


I wrote neither more nor less than had to be written, to make a complete thesis and illustrate it.

Our attention spans are one casualty of today's technology, as I said in the piece (somewhere towards the end).


OT, but I love this sentence juxtaposed with the motto for your blog: "brevity is for the weak"
