This ‘encrypt’ everything is such a waste of CPU and energy. Plus “oops, all your files are gone, tee hee.” HTTPS everywhere is fucking stupid. More complexity for zero benefit.
Because I have reasonable views about security drawbacks? That when I see a vulnerability, I also look at the whole situation and decide if that’s an acceptable risk, rather than screaming “Security issue!” at the top of my lungs and pretending that patching this one vulnerability somehow makes a difference when there’s always another found the next week??
Security isn’t free, it costs us by making it harder to get work done. “Security researchers” only know how to cover their ass. I can do that without their shrieking cries of wolf.

HTTPS isn’t only about encryption; it’s about talking to the right servers.
Great for my banking website.
Not at all important my my IOT sensor network.
Not EVERYTHING needs to be HTTPS
Yes, everything needs to be https. https prevents tapering with traffic.
Don’t use HTTPS on your IOT sensor network then.
Nobody is forcing you to use HTTPS man
Move the goalposts some more. I never said forced.
Hey guys I found the dude who complained the github didn’t come in EXE form lmao
You know how I know you don’t know anything about security or computing?

"Might as well not bother patching this actively-exploited security vulnerability, there’ll just be another one in the future, " LMAO
You lack nuance in comprehension of complicated subjects. Are you a security researcher?
Get out of here glowies!
You should triple encrypt your HD.
Just to be sure.
Once with a strong hash and random password is enough. (Assuming luks2)
But what if… there’s a vulnerabilty…‘spooky noises’
