So come December if you run TOR the federal government can confiscate your computer simply based on suspicion of wrongdoing. I think this is bullshit but what can we fucking do? I use TOR to prevent websites from collecting data on me on the surface web. Sometimes go to the deep web but never for illegal reasons. There is nothing illegal for checking out drug and gun sites just for fun to impress your friends. There is nothing illegal about going to forums on there such as Intel exchange that are designed to keep trolls out. Now that the feds can pull this shit how are we supposed to even use the internet? Should we just give up on it and become luddites? What's the point of using it if we are punished for trying to protect ourselves?

1:s/federal government/FBI
2:this is true regardless of TOR use, if a cop wants to take your computer you will not stop him. Best chance is self-destructing encryption
Does anyone have credible sauce? Something besides that Youtube video?
But the problem is even if you don't do illegal shit you lose your computer new laptops are expensive. Not everyone can afford to replace one at a moments notice. If you'll watch the video i put on up there you will notice that guy said the feds took his laptop and mysteriously "lost it" which of course means federal agents who swore to uphold the law took it from the evidence locker to sell on the streets. What if your a broke ass college student who relies on it for your classes? It's bullshit how the feds can just fuck over your life like that it isn't supposed to be that way.
Don't worry, it's In the Name of National Security™! We have to show those terrorists who's boss!
In fact, since Sup Forums seems to be so against this enforcement of freedom, we should start a political party to garner support and raise awareness of these important issues! The NatSec Party of America, or the NatSecs for short... it has a nice ring to it, don't you think?
There are too many Tor users for them to do this consistently. If you are really worried about it, just run Tor on a shitty Thinkpad.
Imho I think we need to create a new internet that, unlike the one we are on now, is actually designed for privacy. The deep web is only a subsidiary of the world wide web. We need a better internet.
>swore to uphold the law took it from the evidence locker to sell on the streets
Fucked up, but not illegal, and not limited to computers. Look up civil forfeiture, statutory seizure, and their big cousin eminent domain.
What would Jefferson and Franklin say to a college student getting his MacBook ripped off for trying to use for to send encrypted messages, not containing Isis or cp stuff, but his legal aged girlfriends nudes?
It's just clickbait bullshit. It's not feasible for them to search everyone's computers who are running Tor. In any case, you should be running Qubes+Whonix to prevent this kind of shit anyway.
RAP BATTLE BETWEEN RMS AND DRAKE AT
He can just help them decrypt the images and copy it over to the FBI evidence server. Doing this would prove it has nothing with child pornography or terrorism to do and once this is done he can have his shitty computer back.
i think all it means is that FBI would legally be allowed to use FBI owned tor nodes to capture data that passes through it.
>tor will be botnet
Im out of their jurisdiciton, so they can suck these tor using balls niggah xD
>muh fourth amendment right
>muh tappings, even though they don't know who's being tappinged
>woobly weebly woo
I'm not sure what's new about this law, because everything he was talking about for the first couple minutes sounds like stuff they can legally do already.
How he thinks this breaks the current laws, I don't really understand. If you're freely transmitting data from your computer and it gets picked up, how the hell can you think that's protected under a fourth amendment?
Monitoring doesn't need your name either, has that ever been a rule? You just need to be an identifiable individual. Half of the people stung for P2P aren't named until after they were monitored.
>As a result, the FBI can then legally search computers running Tor remotely, even if they have no idea where the machine is located or what it is being used for.
>Simply having anonymity software installed on a computer would be reason enough for the FBI to investigate that user to “combat cyber crime.”
>Moreover, this would allow the FBI to spy on Bitcoin users all over the world if they use Tor software to anonymize their wallets as well.
No idea how the fuck they believe they're gonna get all that shit right.
>we should start a political party to garner support and raise awareness of these important issues! The NatSec Party of America
Technocrats?
The average citizen happily sacrifices some privacy for a better perceived sense of security.
American people should be happy to give up their constitutional freedoms in the name of democracy or whatever such nonsense the media should have me believe is the reason.
As if respecting the constitution should ever be considered by our government overlords, you plebs.
This. Be a good boï. Buy Slurp Cola Product and go to work for minimum wage. And don't forget to be glad, you could be born in Somalia after all.
