Unless you're in a commonwealth country and happen to have some right of stalin political takes
VPN is a filtering system to know whats worth looking at


they already have all the data, the problem is filtering it
who hides their traffic except people trying to do something illicit

also, you have a permanent record this way of every act and transaction

but good luck explaining it to anyone

@DioZeed
So use VPN to post cute cat pictures, make them go bonkers 😉

What does it have to do with what I just said? Even if they can decrypt it, they'd be wasting resources on doing that and on analyzing your cat pictures. Using VPN for everything refutes your "filtering" point. The more people use VPN the more they have to analyze and they can't analyze everything. It's the same as denial of service attack 🤷
@thor @billiesmoker69

the truly galling part is they already told you the score

but until some fuckin leftist fag like taibbi "explains" it to you you will spit in my face

@DioZeed Man, what are you talking about and who the fuck is Taibbi? I don't have a stake in your game, I'm from Russia and I have good damn reasons to use VPN besides making glowies busy — 8 out of 10 sites I use daily are blocked here. I just can't access them without VPN — plain and simple. And I'm not talking Ted Kaczynski fancub "How to assemble bomb" stuff — fucking BandCamp is blocked, imagine that!
@thor @billiesmoker69

@DioZeed And as you might have heard, FSB fellas don't need no "scoring" to put you in jail, they don't have to listen to your traffic at all to shoot you on the spot.
But I still think that using VPN makes surveillance *en masse* harder. If they were so smart and all-powerful, you'd be something like an ant to them — not a threat. The fact that they go to such lengths scoring you and decrypting your traffic alone disproves you nice here theory.

i tried explaining this shit in 2009

i dont care anymore if people understand - Russia is currently outside the network in many regards, but it doesnt matter because all traffic is being trunked

the hashing algos your encryption solutions are based on were mathematically backdoored by the NSA

i realize you dont get what i am saying and i have to admit, its 2022 and even if i could explain it, the ants would be psychologically incapable of mounting a defense against it anyways

fine, exchange the name Taibbi with NWO intcom avatars like asange or snowden, whatever it takes to get you to understand you have already been debriefed about the end of privacy
most people's traffic is irrelevant, it's more about feeding the palantir engines via hadoop architectures and shit, programming the organic computing solutions for "AI" purposes etc.

i dont need it explained to me that john q public isnt tom clancy

bu thanks
youre not worried about being shot by feds because you are an ant

im worried about the imp[ending post-human borg beehive

this isnt about the NSA having your dick pics chief
