Lmao then they bitch and moan when people abroad start cutting back on us-based tech and enforcing open standards

After what Snowden has uncovered, Palantir plain in the open, companies like Meta/Facebook and Alphabet/Google shitting on your privacy , I am absolutely sure you will be subject to spying always and regardless of what you're doing.

Does anyone seriously believe that not using a VPN would save you from governmental snooping?

reddit pretty much would ban people using vpn , so they know too.

Just think of all the children they will be protecting! (Sarcasm)

I note the range of Republicans and dRepublicans (Democrats are Republicans in every meaningful way) who support this action (not sarcasm)

As if they weren't already scooping up people's information already. The point of VPN and other defenses is just to make investigation too expensive to do as a free action.

I hate the way this is getting it twisted.

Just because your signal is misinterpreted does not mean you've waived your rights. It means their system and it's use of citizen's data is flawed and violates the law.

...Americans may be inadvertently waiving the privacy protections they’re entitled to under the law.

We have no protections and no privacy, laws or no.

No.

Stop fearbaiting.

So in the US, locking your metaphorical doors or windows, or closing your digital curtains, means that authorities can presume you are hiding something and your 4th Amendments rights cease to be valid.

Americans may be inadvertently waiving the privacy protections they're entitled to under the law.

lmao

Old news... If you are using a VPN, it's "foreign communications" and subject to spying; and if you aren't using a VPN, they route the data through a room that's considered a foreign enclave (like an embassy), turning it into "foreign communications" and subject to spying.

Did they stop spying on americans. Im pretty sure snowden is still living in russia.

The entirety of this has made me furious so I'm leaving a comment to remember to come back and soapbox in a bit.

“Mighty suspicious of you to protect yourself from our abuse. You must be up to no good.”

Lmao, what privacy protections? This is the land of the grift, you're more protected using a VPN than without one.

Wow! Interesting I didn’t know

I hope they enjoy Farscape, because that's what they're getting of they eavesdrop me.

I'm curious how this works in action. If you use a VPN provider that doesn't do logging, and inherently you're traffic is encrypted via that VPN, what are they spying on? That's kind of the whole purpose of running a VPN in the first place.

If they happen to somehow see the unencrypted traffic, I hope they enjoy sifting through ass loads of torrent data. Good luck, shit bags.

I already assume the gubmint can see everything else I do. The VPN just keeps my ISP from cancelling my service.

I hope they have fun watching me pirate the entirety of the Pokémon anime then.

Bro these last two years I've been put on every list. It's way too late for any of this.

It was the Swedes causing mass shootings in America the whole time!

• Republicans probably

Things keep going on their current path, I'll be using i2p fairly soon.

I wonder how the goberment feels about that?

Edit: spelling

They already spy on everyone. They probably do worse and promote social manipulation too.

Humanity is owned. And they are trying to own it further with air and digitizing everything. And they will succeed because most people don't give a fuck and just consume all the bullshit and lifestyles marketed to them.

like in the old days of illegal wiretapping when throughout the conversation one would randomly say "bomb", "arson", "nuke" etc. It's time to use more VPN to generate such a level of white noise where it becomes impractical to track VPN access...

Doesn't CGNat obscure the user true location in the same way? And what kind of VPN are we talking about? Company with exit node in the country? Commercial ones only?
