throw457··on AOL 3.0 reverse engineered
Faking AOL is what started my interest in hacking with the absurd pricing of internet access in germany at the time.
throw457··on Every photo I took of a NATO building disappeared from my camera roll
I hate these attention seeking fabricated social posts. It was build by nato got everything military stripped out and is now a civilian ATC side there are hundreds of pictures and videos on the net...the most you will find if you search for the Icelandic names. And as you can see from the recent pictures on google maps it's mainly ruins left

throw457··on Telegram has released user data to German Feds in multiple cases
Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.—In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant. We should claim that any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law and we should consider incitement to intolerance and persecution as criminal, in the same way as we should consider incitement to murder, or to kidnapping, or to the revival of the slave trade, as criminal. – Karl Raimund Popper (28 July 1902 – 17 September 1994)

If the experts have better solutions than the one proposed by the government for a problem they care about they can just tell the government about their solutions. Like the CCC in Germany does.These proposals are steered by consultancies like McKinsey and other nefarious actors don't pretend that these politicians just talk out of their ass.
throw457··on WhatsApp threatened to leave the Netherlands due to controversial backdoor law
People like you always pretend like you are not voting for your government or you are not part of the society you live in. There is a problem with rampart criminal activity on the net and there is atm no solution to it. Pretending that the world doesn't change has never done any good or why you are not writing this on your C64...
throw457··on WhatsApp threatened to leave the Netherlands due to controversial backdoor law
The experts could come forward and propose solutions that actually work. Like the CCC did with their talking points at the last major election. I always hear the arguments against but not even once is someone bringing alternatives up. Just like you did in your comment.
