Because the people who died were poor, this accident adds net positive emotional entertainment value to the life of typical consumer.

Nature disasters are just side show in human life at this point.

The court will consider intention. If it can be shown that the wording was intentionally selected to work as warrant canary and has no other function, the case is clear.

Your canary has clearly only one purpose: revealing the warrant while thinking you are smartass and get away with it.

2. Encryption is extra risk for your data. If you lose the keys, you lose the data. People are bad at backing up their data, why they would be better at managing their keys? Being sloppy with your keys means that somebody can impersonate you with more credibility (what if banks would accepting PGP singed orders in email)

3. Value from widely used PGP happens mostly in society level. Encrypting any particular piece of data has negative expected value in most cases.

4. Using PGP requires understanding the basic concepts and using it well is not that easy (lots of pest practices). People don't know any of this stuff. Even public and private key is far out concept for most people.

If you think countries as companies, they would be like business parks. You can compete with low price or good infrastructure. Sweden is Google of countries. It provides highly educated people, good infrastructure, safety and low corruption with higher price. This will inevitability drive out low margin industries that rely on cheap labour but it will be good environment for high- and middle-tech companies.

The problems that arise elsewhere should be solved elsewhere.

It would be nice to find it again. The issue in question had picture of green? man/gigant weighted down with heavy weights.

For one thing, I think classical spying between governments is just good thing. Knowing what other sovereign actors do and think without filters removes suspicion. Government officials getting spied on just shows incompetence from those go spied and they should up their game. I think security agencies in many countries will now update their policies and get funding for doing so. It's also better understood outside intelligence communities that everyone outside Five Eye countries is considered outsider.

Also. Mass surveillance of citizens is very different from targeted surveillance of small number of suspects. Mass surveillance changes the power balance in democracy. Targeted surveillance of select number of people fits into normal intelligence work.

1. Governments spying other governments and foreign companies.

2. Government mass surveillance of their citizens, and citizens of other countries if possible.

3. Government using the Internet to target some small subset of their citizens.
