@froge @GossiTheDog This is what I'm saying - that it shouldn't be on by default, only with informed consent.
For the vast majority of users, losing their photos of their kids or all their personal writing or whatever is much more catastrophic than "someone who seizes my computer might see what's on it".
@mloxton @GossiTheDog They won't because the goal for them is never to have a working equitable sustainable system. It's to justify their adversarial existence and place on the top above responsibility, screw the people they were supposed to be protecting.
@froge @GossiTheDog "By default". Rightfully so. The default should never be "you lose everything if you lose your keys". If you want an encrypted drive that you can't recover by putting it in another machine, you should have to opt in to that and understand the risks and availability-confidentiality tradeoff.
@stux Yeah I get that. I just wouldn't wear it in its current form because it's at least ableism-adjacent and I don't think I'd feel confident that it wouldn't be interpreted as smugness in one's own perceived intellectual superiority.
@stux I'd be much more into this if they'd chosen a better word than "stupid". The people we don't want to be around don't have cognitive deficiencies. They have moral ones.
@jwildeboer See: "atrociously bad quality of cars". This wouldn't be a problem if swapping out the electronics were trivial, but when you have an intentionally locked-down shit Android device on wheels rather than a proper car...
@jwildeboer Atrociously bad quality of cars if true. A car should last 25-40 years at least. No way a battery does.
@artemis This is really the difference between good and bad/no moderation. We shouldn't have to deal with bad faith engagement.
