If I ever, ever somehow end up living in a world where it’s not possible to communicate with someone digitally and be completely encrypted, if we get to a point where you MUST put your ID into signal and have the government scan all signal messages, I’ll probably just kill myself.
And take a few politicians with me at the very least.
… where it’s not possible to communicate with someone digitally…
I’d be thrilled to go back to that, if what we’re getting now instead is the only other option. But, I grew up in the before-times, so I’m not so put off by the idea.
You’re still getting surveilled in real-life conversations … if anyone in the conversation is stupid enough to bring their phone or other ‘smart’ device (including any modern car).
better idea: communicate irl. and also we need proper end-to-end encrypted chats that exchange public keys from device to device directly (NFC or QR code) (which requires physical meeting).

You cannot ban cryptography, so the messenger is not the problem. You can control computing hardware tho…

I don’t know a single person in real life that can maintain a conversation about this. And I keep looking.
Check out Briar and Meshtastic
Great, teach mesh computing to an elderly relative 10k miles away that can’t even log onto a banking website
I don’t know why you’re being hostile. Options are good, I didn’t ever say that it would fit every scenario.
You could always get really into steganography
