For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Good luck explaining that to 80 year old politicians.

Fuck this is ironic. First they push for everything to be easily hackable and now they're panicking when a foreign agent starts hacking in. Fucking bravo dipshits!

Nationwide use of Briar when?

There are other options that are probably easier and more effective to use in some situations (but Briar is definitely useful for many relevant situations): https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/

They need to use Echelon and Five Eyes to stop Spam and Scam calls. That would be a good reason to spy on your own citizens.

Use... Five eyes to stop spam calls? How would that work? Are they dispatching Australians to shoot scammers or something?
