@Equation group stuff
On the bright side, the average person is nowhere near significant enough to warrant such an attack. And try as they might, they (presently) cannot monitor literally everyone without running into major technological problems, such as the absurd amounts of data it would create and how to organise said data in a processing cost and time effective manner (due to its sheer size) and how to retrieve snippets of said data without spending ten years slogging through it all etc. etc.

inb4 the new best way to become a terrorist is to hand as much data as you can over the government. If everyone gives them access to all of our data, then it should quickly become way too much for the government to ever actually process, meaning that anything we don't want them to see will slip by right under their noses! :P

Uh, that already exists. It's called a DDOS attack, though it's not usually used as a smokescreen but as an attack by itself.

Ah, the classic "OI'VE got nuffin to hide, so unilateral warrantless government spying and electronic attacks are perfectly reasonable."  :P
My stepdad's a fan of that one. IMO he has to be a government shill or something. Nobody trusts Theresa May that much.

Spent the past hour wondering where the hell the bus was taking me, yet being too tired to feel anything other than vague panic. Nothing looks like anything in the dark, so I couldn't pick out any landmarks along the route. I constantly feel like I'm forgetting something anymore, so for all I know I could have somehow unwittingly boarded the North County bus instead of city loop, even though I've always caught the city loop at the same time and place every friday for the past few weeks.

Oh jeez, that's never good. Good luck making it to wherever you're supposed to be. :-\


Terror: I sure hope the weather forecast is wrong. It's telling me it's going to rain all day today, 'til about 5PM.
Today is supposed to be 'backyard party' day. Fuck off, rainstorms! Why does the first storm of Summer have to choose now to happen?!-

I'm not terrified with this but anyway it's this.

If you are paranoid with that, dump your hard disc into something that melts something like ceramic and steel(blast furnace is recommended) or turn it into fine grain, buy a random computer from a random store (no, don't ask to send it to your home) and don't connect to the internet or with any USB items.
The side effect is erasing everything inside into oblivion, so that one hard disc will not be back because it's molten and shared with all the great liquid stuff. Perfect if you wanna destroy every data inside that one hard disc.

What's lethal is probably it's heat. Add with the fact that hot hydrogenic things(something like water etc.) could heat things to the point of ignition to the mix*. Bam*.

Y'all just don't appreciate your mama's hard work knitting fine sweaters.

Also, in legitimate terrified; the weather is abominable right now. Rain forever, hydroplaning all the way into town and now I have to grab a 10 minute shower before driving halfway back, to arrive at work.

I don't want them knowing anything. As noted in the song "why can't we be friends" the intelligence community is mostly made up of people who were too sleazy to make it in organized crime.
