@p @amphidamant @mint OK well at that point we're in the realm is digital sovereignty apologetics which is a little different than just surface level understanding of the tech subjects themselves.

As an aside, I did have a debate with a coworker about whether people should be allowed to have encryption that the government can't crack. When I said "you could be committing crimes in your house right now. We should have a camera in every room you have."

"Well my family does have 6 Alexas so..."

Just thinking about that conversation is making my blood pressure spike.
