Then allow me to knock it up a notch!

Encryption isn't needed, because nothing important happens over the internet.

Nobody shops online, or does their banking online. Nobody would ever work from home over the internet - how would the boss know if workers were sleeping on the job? People who want to buy stocks from their phone simply phone their stockbroker. Anyone can post any nonsense on the internet, so it's useless for any serious research. Dating online, where anyone can lie about anything? I hardly think that's likely.

The idea that a control system for an important bit of infrastructure like a power plant would be connected to the internet? A car with a driver assistance system getting software updates over the internet? Utterly inconceivable.

A pandemic that shifts almost the entire economy and almost all socialisation online? I doubt that would ever happen. In my society, we cover our mouths when we sneeze, and wash our hands after using the bathroom.

Just look at the most valuable companies, that have driven the growth of the economy over recent decades. Apple, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Facebook, Netflix. If there's one thing they have in common, it's that they're absolutely nothing to do with the internet.

The internet is, at its heart, nothing more than a chatroom for shut-in losers to talk about pokemon - so there's no need for anything online to be private.

Feel free to debate the statement on its merits, at face value.

It's your lucky day! I have trained an LLM that reliably detects sarcasm. It was trained on only the finest sarcasm, dramatic irony, situational irony, ridicule and tomfoolery. As an amazing side effect it can even detect whether statements were made in bad faith or good faith with 100% reliability. You need never guess someone's intentions again! The machine will tell you.

I intend to launch it soon, don't miss this investment opportunity!
