@captainepoch @sun peter thiel stay winning, as always
@icedquinn @sun Is that something from US politics? I don't catch the reference...

@icedquinn @sun Ah... I didn't know about him... He can go and fuck himself with a pole on fire.
@captainepoch @sun i'm guessing if you did an audit there's billionaires behind the spy bills. there usually is.
@icedquinn @captainepoch I traced it and all the NGOs pushing this were primarily funded by other NGOs that get funding from the USA and UK governments. It's pure government astroturf
@icedquinn @captainepoch chatcontrol is being pushed by anti human trafficking orgs that are primarily funded by governments.
@captainepoch @icedquinn age verification is being pushed by Palantir and Meta though so yes billionaires are behind stuff but not chatcontrol afaict

@Pi_rat @captainepoch @icedquinn both google and meta chose on their own to experiment with e2ee as a direct result of usg threatening and hacking them, so it's kind of the opposite reality to what wired was presenting. I don't think google/meta are very good, and they do want to spy on you, but tbh I think they realized your social graph is the valuable part
