<p>that may be, and you're right that they're building highways but this is part of a broader power grab on the second amendment.<p>don't forget that they just banned 'content' by disallowing foreign flir on drones, which is the modern equivalent to a periscope.<p>they are putting enough satellites in orbit to track everyone all at once roughly.<p>this is over reach.<p>this is why i am nervous about 'small government', they're not going to give up ground and will remain 'big data'. it is a tax and a restriction on freedoms of press, of arms, of speech, of movement, of assembly, of association.<p>where's the redress and representation?<p>it is a human right to build an emergency transmitter out of barbed wire, not a data center right of way to filter process and categorize.</p>

<p>yeah i don't know as esoteric as it is it could be a referential index into a bitmask/seive for your key.<p>there's a lot you can do behind the scenes with even a couple bits of... free space?<p>the key should be enough of a unique id to not have to require this? see (hash). a separate linked 'randomized' unique identifier might be crazy man territory but i'm not lying... your 'weakened' key doesn't _need_ to be all zeros, just predictable eg. within a certain time frame, anything that can reduce the search space is dangerous.<p>edit: it could contain an identifier for which hrng was used to produce it.</p>
