@cstross They don't even know what a VPN is or does. They tried to do this with e2e encryption key escrow, to include vpns in about 2017 and then quietly dropped it probably because someone has pointed out that businesses use them extensively for commerce comms and b2b services. Regardless of whether or not the positive effects they want are achieved (they won't be) the negatives will far outweigh them, and it still won't protect kids any better.

@richpuchalsky sorry, I still have brain fog so I'm not writing very clearly. I wasn't trying to justify reform, just staying that a non-hierarchical, non-coercive society would need constant vigilance. That it's not an endpoint but a process in itself.

@EricLawton @richpuchalsky @johnzajac @DejahEntendu @bonaventuresoft It's not a thing you can do just once... It has to be maintained and constantly adjusted, refined and recentred. There will always be ways to improve and there will always be times when it goes off in the "wrong" direction.

@DejahEntendu @johnzajac @EricLawton @bonaventuresoft The governments (all of them) goal is to protect the wealthy from the poor.
