  • I mean there are non-magic ways to secure a phone line or conversation. Cell phone calls are already encrypted, which doesn’t help you if the cell company is ‘in on it’, but you can use a secure messaging app like signal to encrypt texts or calls., provided both people are using it. But lots of media acknowledges the danger of using your own device, and even goes so far as to depict characters theowing away their phone or smashing the sim card. Using a burner phone is not entirely secure but is pretty reliable since you basically become a needle in a haystack of millions of people. Somebody else mentioned person of interest though, and thats a great show that takes the premise that an ai system is eatching and aware of every communication that happens digitally, as well as all camera feeds that are hooked up to a network.













  • People dont vote because they dont feel like their views are properly represented. If each individual issue was open to referendum or voting, the only people who would take part in that specific vote are likely people who are well informed and passionate about the issue. I think this would end up being a far better system than having to vote based on nebulous campaign promises that are hardly ever fulfilled, or when they are, your issue is tacked on or bundled with a whole bunch of irrelevant and even harmful legislation.
