    🤔 why is the privacy thing not the biggest threat? I would think that the privacy one would be more of a threat to privacy than the political stuff. Is that not the case?

      I don’t know how you can, with a straight face, separate “political” and “privacy” stuff. They are intrinsically linked.

      The amount of hoops needed to make the IP address thing, which is just IP address, happen…massive

        Sure, I can imagine the political issues could lead to privacy issues. My question was not about whether or not that’s true[1]. I was simply wondering why a possible privacy issue would rank higher than the actual issue that has already happened.


        1. Something more specific/objective might be helpful though. Saying he’s “pro maga” is like saying he’s “bad vibes”; it requires the reader to just take your word for it without knowing exactly why. But, again, my question was more about the ranking ↩︎

          I just don’t think the IP address is a big deal. A category 5 probably outranks a definite tropical depression.
