Looks like development of such things will have to start happening on the dark web. What a ridiculous conviction.
What the fuck is this kind of reasoning? Is privacy illegal now?

Oops I'm a privacy maximalist now, I didn't even know. Time to privacymaxx this removed up !!
Some famous ex felon and computer hacker named Kevin Mitnick wrote some books about privacy maxing, you might want to read a few of them. I guess he's still a felon, he just served his sentence and is no longer in prison. He did legit steal some people's identity and commit wire fraud.
Not a felon anymore. He died.
