The problem here is: most of people on HN are statistically improbable. Snowden is very improbable. We're not "the vast majority". We're a minority.

I can no longer assess my own security in this world. What if the country I reside in decides to go after my kind of minority?



I think people like Snowden are a very small minority even on HN.


Anybody who uses bitcoin, tor or have encrypted disks can easily become a target.

Not meaning Canada specifically, but one twist in a law and you're nailed. You have no rights when it comes to digital.


If you're not doing anything illegal with tor or encryption, you shouldn't have anything to worry about (in Canada anyway).
