  • Yeah, blame the Russians. As if the Russian revolutionaries were not fighting for the same ideals you believe in. Just by not realizing that eliminating capitalists concentrated all the power in the government and handed power to Stalin on a silver platter.

    Once you come up with an economic model that both works economically and does not hand power to elected officials or some other such group, you have my support. Until then, I will keep the safe assumption that socialists have zero idea what they are talking about and would lead us to doom if we gave them the chance.


  • Yeah, we should just ditch email for sensitive communications.

    Anyway, my point was that I lost trust in Proton back then over this and went to Tuta that has native clients. It makes no difference to my security since I don’t think I ever sent or received a single mail that was actually e2e encrypted. But Tuta’s more serious approach to e2ee made me slightly more confident in it as a company.

    Now it kinda looks like it was the right choice.


  • doesn’t impact the security sufficiently to make a difference for the average user.

    I think it is borderline. I am not advocating for PGP, I like the Signal model where you trust signal for introductions but have the ability to verify, even in retrospect. Trust but verify. Even a few advanced users verifying Signal keys forces Signal to remain honest or risk getting caught.

    I think the lack of meaningful verification for proton is a significant security weakness, though average user probably has bigger things to worry about.











  • I’ll ignore as much parts of your comments as I want when you don’t answer to mine but derail the discussion.

    You accuse me of derailing the discussion, then pivot from claiming porn is “demeaning” to “it reinforces rape culture”. One has nothing to do with the other and I don’t feel like addressing random unrelated arguments you pull out.

    However, I find it intriguing that you believe most mainstream porn focuses only on male needs. In my experience browsing anonymously (VPN, anti-fingerprinting), there is roughly equal amount focusing on women needs.

    I suspect your view may be distorted, for example by algorithms feeding you content they expect you to enjoy.




  • Even if porn actress are doing that willingly, and even if porn films aren’t propaganda, they still convey a vision of womanhood which is demeaning.

    It sounds incredibly sexist to me to say it is demeaning specifically to women or that a woman should have to take some image of womanhood into account when expressing her sexuality or herself in general.

    Sounds to me more like you are projecting your own internalized sexism onto porn (your belief that woman’s sexual expression is demeaning to women for some reason, but not men).
