I use things like this because **** you, that's why, not because I have anything to hide

Sounds like your guilty as hell of something to me. Excessive paranoia at the very least.

And just wait - all these "I lost all my guns in a tragic boating accident" guys are going to be really surprised when the hammer finally falls and the PTB produce audio of their phone calls from 10 years prior where they are talking about where they hid their shit.

Wow, I was just thinking the exact same thing.

Which is it, I wonder? Am I paranoid or are you naive?

If I'm wrong, I've wasted a little money. If you're wrong, you're in deep shit eventually.

If you're happy with your worldview, good on you. I'm glad that there are still some people in the world who don't know just how bad things really are. You'll probably live most or all of your life in your protected little environment and it'll never be a problem for you. Good for you.

Your throwing accusations of paranoia, though, is as usual very Eastern and reminiscent of the gun-grabbers' "Why do you carry a gun?? Are you paranoid?" Bad things happen. Ignoring that fact doesn't change it. And just because they've never happened to YOU doesn't change reality either.

Enjoy the sunny weather in your little world.

At most it would be an inconvenience to the group trying to intercept your data. Depending on the party in question they will either make a single phone call to the company who wrote the software or find away to decrypt it in time. I suppose there is ultra high tech methods but for most of us, low tech rules the day.

Why would I be in deep shit? Your assumption is that I/we must be guilty of something. Why is that?

Yes, it's true. I have led a care free life void of any troubles or hardships. I am also fully insulated to all of life's harsh realities. Got me there.

Bad things happen. Ignoring that fact doesn't change it. And just because they've never happened to YOU doesn't change reality either.

Really man, what are you talking about? Bad things like what, having a plan to smuggle weapons exposed or the typical struggles in life we all endure? My computer has been infected with viruses, I have had a bank account hack by Russians, etc, so it's not like I'm not wary of cyber threats. But you are speaking of this on a whole different level, one in which you elude to the fact that you have things to hide. This doesn't worry me because I haven't done anything questionable in that particular regard.

There are millions of gun owners out there with a substantial number of them having a small arsenal at their disposals. When someone screws up their firearms can unfairly become an issue in rare instances, but this certainly isn't the norm. Assuming this is what you are worried about, that is. If you believe it will become the norm one day soon I wouldn't say it's impossible, just extremely unlikely.

The "problem" with these super high encryption products, is that both sides have to be using the same one. So for most people, they are not that practical. Not that they aren't worthwhile as a product, but the practicality goes down way low due to this.

I'd like to see some of this become part of the new standards. There would still be a need for third party products due to the standard implementations being open to demands by LE for trapdoors for wiretaps, etc, but it would protect, to some degree, the average run of the mill guy from the criminal elements.

Everything you do should be encrypted. Even your emails to the wife about stopping at the store on the way home from work and picking up some steaks.

When everything is encrypted, as a matter of course, the protection to everyone goes way up. Since the ability to decrypt everything, by everyone, in a reasonable amount of time, does not exist. Even a simple high bit key PGP type public key encryption would be a good idea. Even schemes that can be broken in time.

I wish that the default for email and stuff was encrypted. And higher quality for cell/voice. And text messages.
