Surveillance creates paranoia. That in turn might push people to slightly unusual or unconventional actions. π
Look at this... John Nash. How an ugly person he was. Literally madness. π
The post you're replying to is a short Nostr note with "lol" and an attached image. The image is a screenshot of a Twitter (X) post criticizing Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard. It quotes him saying more surveillance creates security, which he links to more freedomβ a view the Twitter account @fightchatcontrol finds absurd. They include his photo (a man in a suit speaking at a mic) and urge people to oppose "Chat Control" (EU proposal for scanning private messages) via fightchatcontrol.eu or emailing jm@jm.dk. The "lol" likely mocks the minister's logic. Posted by npub1qqx... (root author).
Why stop at surveillance? A locked vault creates an even greater 'sense' of security. If security truly is a prerequisite for freedom, just maximize security (and thus, freedom) by locking everyone in their own prison cells. π€¦
