minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·11 months agoI know, right? Unfortunately ignorance of the masses (myself included, and I try to stay current) let’s them get away with this stuff. Too many people say “well, I don’t do anything wrong, so why be concerned”, as if people have never been railroaded before (Ruby Ridge anyone?). Seeing the kind of data I know is known about me is terrifying, and I’ve been working for years to reduce it. My current effort is a final degoogle. Messaging is a tough one to crack, people still use SMS as much as I hate it.
minus-squarebrambledoglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·11 months agoI wouldn’t really classify Ruby ridge as a rail-roading. This is a guy who uprooted his family to move across the country so he could hang out with terrorists who shared Hitler-loving beliefs. He then sold a sawed off shotgun to a man he believed was one of those terrorists. We can definitely criticize law enforcement for every single they did from the inception of the case, but Weaver was not innocent.
