Midwesterner here. Surveys show Trump’s approval rating between 40% and 50%, and here on the ground, I believe it. A lot of people are seriously misled. Fox News, OAN, and Newsmax are considered legitimate news sources, so a lot of people truly believe that Trump is improving things.
It will take decades to deprogram all the people who fell for the alt-right’s tricks.
Post-quantum isn’t really a big problem because it will be a very long time before there are viable quantum computers (maybe never). You should focus on the very real risks of security breaks from normal negligence and design errors.
Threema seems pretty unpopular, so the risk is highest. Signal and Matrix are both popular and have a lot of scrutiny on their cryptography.
All 3 have open source clients, but Signal contains some binary blobs. Only Matrix has an open source server, though end-to-end encryption enforced by the client alleviates most of the concern of proprietary servers. All 3 support end-to-end encryption.
It’s an issue.
You can’t create an account on desktop. You can’t create multiple accounts. You can’t create an account at all if you don’t have a phone number. You can’t create an account if your phone number’s previous owner created an account. Signal can be subpoenaed for your phone number.
Copyright’s purpose is to improve the public domain. If it doesn’t do that, then its harmful and should be reduced or abolished.
To keep copyrighted content relevant at the point it enters the public domain, copyright should be shortened to 20 years for creative works (films, music, paintings, Spongebob).
Consider the current public domain, which contains things like fairy tales. People remix and retell fairy tales all the time, and it makes for good stories.
