Client-Side-Scanning: 'Chat Control is Pure Surveillance State' ( netzpolitik.org ) Englisch

The planned chat control makes the world less secure and more authoritarian, as it is directed against private and encrypted communication. Proponents are using disinformation, lies, and sleight of hand to push through the project. But chat control can still be stopped. A commentary....

"I am a russian propaganda bot."

laughterlaughter ,

You're arguing with a trollbot. Don't bother.

laughterlaughter ,

Downvoters didn't appreciate your pun. I did!

laughterlaughter ,

Oh, we know.

"I hate this option, so instead of voting for a more sensible option, I'll directly mention that I'll vote for the worst option ever. In a subtle way so that I'm not too obvious. But hopefully people reading me will be influenced, even by a tiny bit, to vote for the worst option ever. Because I'm being paid for the people who supports the worst option ever."

laughterlaughter ,

Are you making that up?

laughterlaughter ,

Yup, I hated that "Too much of a good thing durr hurr" phrase in this context.

laughterlaughter ,

Hear me out: Automatic paella making machines.

laughterlaughter , (Bearbeitet )

So, dig deeper with machines powered with the excess energy. I don't see the issue...

(I'm half-joking.)

laughterlaughter ,

Hot thing loses heat, re-heat it with the excess energy!

laughterlaughter ,

What about huge underground reservoirs?

"We produce so much energy that we can use it in any way we want."

I don't see the problem with that.

laughterlaughter ,

Instead we should be working towards getting people to reduce their energy usage.

But in you scenario, why?

laughterlaughter ,

Aw shucks. Sucks.

Are there any articles out there I could read more about this?

laughterlaughter ,

What’s funny is that if we were talking about the quantity of petrol that we use no one would question the fact that it’s stupid to not push people to stop wasting it…

This is a false equivalency, because petrol is a limited resource. Renewable energy isn't (by its own definition.)

But I do see the validity of your other points.

laughterlaughter ,

Good points. Giving the surplus to folks who otherwise produce their energy with carbon sounds sensible.

laughterlaughter ,

Infrastructure can be dismantled, its materials recycled, and then replaced with a newer, more efficient thing. And the energy to power this operation? Renewable.

laughterlaughter ,

Recycling uses even more energy than producing from scratch and also has a huge environmental impact

Alright, alright. With that extraordinary claim, I'm going to need you to back it up.

And we are delving into red-herring territory. The original discussion was focused on green energy surplus.

laughterlaughter ,

No biggie, friend.

laughterlaughter ,

Apples and oranges. More like apples and steel nails.
