We're free to do whatever we want as long as it's what they want. Reminds of the Henry Ford saying you can have any color you want as long as it's black or something like that.
I love that quote. Yup, as long as it plays into their desires for us, then we can do whatever we want. Freedoms without freedom.
The sad truth let's hope we can keep fighting back and maybe one day we can get some younger people in there that actually care about the people and privacy.
Agreed. The issue seems to be, that those younger people you're talking about, are being politically (sometimes physically) massacred before they have a chance to make an impact.
Ya that's true take em out young before they can make an impact probably why our public education system is shite too. Pretty much training us to work some 9 to 5 and sit and produce rather than be creative and think outside the box. Only when you have money and status can you actually learn something that helps you figure out the world and how it runs.
Yuhp! Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your TV, follow fashion, obey the law, and repeat after me...
Yesss!! I knew I didn't make it up, but couldn't remember where I got it. Thank you!
I guess I could have searched. Meh
No worries I forgot where I found this but it was my phone background for so long lol
It was my computer wallpaper for long enough that I memorized the quote hahaha
I have an EFF "come back with a warrant" wallpaper on my phone's lock screen.
