Thing is… if I have to do that for every time someone linkdrops an article, I’ll have no time left in my day.
if you spent less time writing comments about articles you haven’t read, you might have more time. do you do this in other walks of life? wander into restaurants you’ve never eaten at and announce “i don’t think there’s really any reason to order the fish”?
And it seems I was right that I have no real reason to use tor.
okay, i’ll sum the article up for you. the more people that use tor, the more it protects vulnerable people. journalists writing exposés about corrupt governments, refugees trying to flee, etc. the more normal people using tor, the more they get lost in the crowd. it’s nothing to do with whether you have any reason to use tor, that’s irrelevant. by using it, you’re helping those in vulnerable positions. happy? now go write something inciteful
Are you really surprised I’m replying to you when you keep replying?
well yes, actually. i have time to sit down over breakfast, read a few articles, maybe reply to a few comments
you clearly live such a busy lifestyle you haven’t time to read an article before making an asinine comment
And yes, you are merely confirming my point. There is no use for me personally. I would only have to use it and endure slower internet so that others benefit. Still doesn’t change the fact that for me personally there is no advantage. You can argue all you want but that’s what it comes down to for most people.
well that’s a pretty fuckin stupid viewpoint in my opinion. “i’m not going to help protect the careers and possibly lives of people in authoritarian countries, because i’d have to install a programme and possibly even launch it a couple of times per month”. running folding@home did me no advantage, i still did it.
And if you keep replying I’ll keep replying. No need to be surprised about that.
don’t worry, i won’t be. i was being flippant because i thought you an idiot, but it turns out you’re willfully ignorant.
I am seeing this black and white thinking a lot. Just because I don’t do the thing you want me to do, I am supposedly “fuckin stupid”. Very mature bud, very mature.
I find this discussion to be quite interesting because it seems like you cannot handle people disagreeing with you very well. Maybe this is a returning thing in your life and if it is, I advise you to get help. It’s not normal to respond in the way you are responding to a simple disagreement. All the best with that.

Hey folks, I think this thread is getting a bit heated and it is probably time for all involved to disengage.
