He's just bitching about browsers. How is this useful? Some dudes subjective opinions.

In the better days of the internet, back when people actually browsed the internet and you would see dozens or hundreds of different websites a day, there is kind of a use to a constant log of history, in case you vaguely remember seeing a site, but couldn't remember how you got there and you couldn't search because there were no search engines.

Interesting; this is still me. I want a history kept for those single websites where I remember a title but nothing else and have no idea how I got there.

Interesting site I’ll have to look more at it.

< Brave has been dutiful enough to allow everything to be disabled, but none of this is browsing related. I want a browser. Stop giving me stuff that's not a browser. That's why I liked the idea of the ad-block, but it looks like Brave will need a feature-block as well.

Ok I get wanting to hate brave, but god damn you can remove it.

What browser does this person use? And did he create one? Haven’t read too far into him

Kind of the problem, he offers no suggestions.

I use opera. Its a straight chinese information harvesting version of chrome. Like I give a fuck if a bunch of sub humans know what I click on, it blocks almost ALL advertisements, no adding programs like a faggot. China proves that when you give a million monkeys keyboards, eventually they shit out something that kinda works. No fucking ads. free. no downloads.

"I've got nothing to hide"

Dumbass

You're a dumbass if you think anything you do online is hidden. I also don't do anything that fucking matters. The only difference between using a chinese operating system and an american one is what bunch of sub human faggots get to see what I click on. As it sits, china is doing a better job killing humans than any other group. I hope 90% of the people on this planet full blown buy into communism so I can watch them eat their own children. I truly don't give a fuck. I know how to exist outside of this bullshit fabricated reality. I don't need society, its just a bunch of faggots.

Read this you fucktard. Or don't. But you might realize I'm just trying to save you from yourself.

"I don't need society" as you're typing on a computer connected to the internet with power delivered to your home from far away. SMGDH

This paper was pretty long. I skimmed and summed up the best points:

There is social value in ensuring companies adhere to their privacy policies (and governments adhere to their Constitution) otherwise any states limits become meaningless and helps companies (and governments) become boundless. Such a site of affairs can leave consumers in a powerless position.

NSA collection resembles a due process problem because people don't know what is being collected. It creates a power imbalance between individuals and the government.

Chilling effects harm society because, among other things, they reduce the range of viewpoints expressed and the degree of freedom in which to engage political activity.

The "I have nothing to hide argument" basically equates to "I don't care what happens as long as it doesn't happen to me."

One thing the essay does not delve into is blackmail and separation of power. An entity powerful enough to collect almost unlimited data is an entity powerful enough to abuse you unlimitedly. The attempted blackmail and spying on Trump, a duty elected President, is the fallout of the corrupting nature of being able to spy with impunity. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
