This is what we call a beachhead.

If Florida, or any 1 state passes a law requiring a backdoor in Signal, the government now has a backdoor they can use anywhere, anytime.

Do we have an idea of how close #quantam computers are to factoring large numbers? Is it 5, 10 or 20 years away? Or do you think its likely that #RSA is broken and they can already factor hundred digit composites?
I've only got a basic understanding of these systems from Wikipedia articles

I installed Gentoo GNU/Linux with full encypted root with
deattached LUKS2 header by GPG encrypted key file at
USB. :-) If you don't understand - it is perfect.

I almost gave up, but suddenly found complete guide from
"Screenager" with hack to Dracut.

It is Grub -> Dracut -> decrupt, mount -> Root.

"plymouth quit" - that is how to get access to Dracut
rd.shell.

I know three ways to boot kernel:
- kexec and chroot from installCD
- Legacy BIOS - MBR record
- UEFI - EFI stub, makes installation even more harder.

Why so much effor? 1) Because this is Ring 0 level of
security. 2) Actually, I have a very good GPG
encryption for a single file with GPG prompt outside of
Windows. I just prove to myself that I can do it.

I'll never recommend Windows 11 over macOS and Linux.

Until BitLocker becomes optional after installing Windows 11, I'll die on that hill.

You do realise that a person gets #encyption for free when they #useTor, right?

You do not need to trust a exitNode the only thing they see is someone sending a packet to a proxy. It is specifically designed so that people can share sensitive communications and hide them from oppressive govts and the #jeffreyEpsteinClass.

If you don't trust the #openSource #freeLicence technology, that's fine. There's no need to justify that :)

暗号をめぐる政府とユーザーの攻防は永久戦争の様相かもしれない。米国議会でまたしても政府による暗号解読の合法化を目論む法案が議論されている。深刻なのは、この法案が通過するとエンドツーエンド暗号化が弱体化されること、プロバイダーやプラットフォーム企業が政府の手先を演じる可能性がでてくる。米国の動向を後追いする日本も要注意。
