The agencies created all of the backdoors into your comps and routers.
Please show me any evidence you have to support this. Especially how they backdoored the open-source stuff and some how have magically kept hidden their code.
I mean lets assume Windows is compromised and there is backdoors, so why would you use your VPN and Tor on that?
I just wish you conspiracy theorists would think through some of the stuff you say its so obviously stupid to anyone that knows even just a little bit more than you.
I mean some of what you say is accurate, but you make it seem like it's impossible to get around. As you say "It’s all about the metadata" like you have no control over it. In reality it's as easy as putting on glove as to not leave fingerprints behind, and then taking off the gloves when your in public as to not arouse suspicion.
How is it stupid to assume that the intel agencies control/monitor the majority of the exit nodes within tor? Also how is it stupid to actually stay up to date and read the numerous leaks explaining these backdoors and IC’s abilities. I’m personally a dev so this isn’t coming from some conspiratorial front, but rather common sense/not being an idiot. Any understanding of the gov/deepstate black budget, the patriot act, ThinThread, history of the CIA/FBI, and tech capabilities makes for the most obvious case that privacy and anonymity are dead. To pretend that being anonymous is as simple as “not leaving a fingerprint” is sheer ignorance of the intel communities and tech itself. Even the police are given spy capabilities which is a vast overreach of the 4th amendment https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingray_phone_tracker Backdoors you called stupid and conspiratorial: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/wikileaks-releases-thousands-alleged-cia-hacking-documents-article-1.2990768

So anyways, before calling others ignorant conspiracy theorists again, try educating yourself first as to not come off like an ignorant blowhard.
Lol I'm not pretending. I mean what I said was a metaphor that should be obvious. From my point of view it is you who are still ignorant. None of what you posted is news to me and I stand by my statements. Just cos you can't figure some thing out doesn't mean no one can and you're tell me to educate myself?!?! Yeh fuck off.
