Hello Steemians 👋

I wanted to share my thoughts on a recent article that popped up on my phone from Wired.com. I thought that it needed a different perspective - one other than [y]our insecure media narrative.

The article basically touches on the fact that people on the other side of the globe (who don't see eye to eye with our dominance of the world), now have access to the same technologies we have.

Stenography has been around and used for ages in terms of communicating in what is dubbed "shorthand";

You can watch a video of mine explaining how to use a tool just like the one explained in the article.

You can also download the Stegosuite software, if you're interested.

As a huge advocate for privacy, here are a few things to think about;

• Is it wrong to demonize methods of encrypting messages and/or data?
• Are intelligence communities so upset that they can't mine this data as quickly?
• Why are intelligence communities able to "classify" information w/o the public knowing?
• Shouldn't we all have access to technologies that help maintain individual privacy?
• Should we not have more privacy while govt's & it's agencies have more transparency?

"ISIS", "The Taliban", "Al-Qaeda" have arguably come into existence because of our bullshit presence in that portion of the globe. Perhaps it's easier to rid "terrorism" of the world by simply removing ourselves from that conflict. Maybe trying to avoid destroying entire civilizations, families, brothers, sisters, sons & daughters...
