No mention of ODDNS and other decentralised DNS systems?

I will be registering my addresses under the ODDNS system. People will be able to reclaim their privacy and stop the American government from removing your site from the name servers (how addresses like rt.com can be redirected to the correct server).

ODDN S is reportedly ready for prime time in the next few weeks. RT, can you register your own ODDNS address before one of the Zionist trolls grab it to stop you from using it?

There was life before the internet, if disconnecting is what must be done than so be it.

I should add that Awareness of illegal activity or tyrannical activity that imposes upon personal freedom is very different from acceptance. One still expects privacy in personal communications, and to be presumed innocent.

No doubt, if social groups emerge and use end-to-end encryption along with TOR (The Onion Router) or similar tools, then governments will move to make such use itself a criminal act, even if acquaintences only want to communicate harmless information privately. There is a reason that people sometimes send letters in envelopes and at other times don't mind using postcards: They want privacy in the former case but don't mind the lack of privacy in the latter. And yes, I realise that letters aren't secure from intelligence services, but you understand my point, I hope.

People will just have to become more resourceful when it comes to online privacy. With the recent events telling us ISPs betraying their customers to the MPAA and RIAA, many customers are very concerned with keeping their activities online private, illegal or not. There are only a few options on the table. The easiest one is to simply switch to an ISP that isn't actively cooperating with the MPAA/RIAA. The next option is use of a PAID VPN service that will protect your privacy. (HideMyAss is definitely a bad VPN.)

Privacy on the internet? I don't believe a word.

The only one that has privacy are 'Anonymous', and we'll see just how long they stay anonymous before every k-ke in that organisation rats them out, or they rat on each other as they're not known to be moral/honest people -- those that watch p-rnography, anyway.

P.S. is RT thinking of new 'obscene' words to filter? I could have swore I used 'k-ke' recently without having to filter it; there's nothing obscene about calling a duck a duck.

Is RT aware of Echelon or signals intelligence? As the other poster pointed out, this sort of thing has been very active since 1999 or 2000, at least.

There is a new web site(name of site witheld), it takes after facebook BUT!!! you have to be able to hack it to get on it, Not one goverment can track or look into e-mails and if they do the hackers track and shut down the goverments internet. I can see more and more of these sites popping up in the near future. So if i was you i would start learning or let goverments track you!

Who are you trying to kid RT? We lost internet privacy many years ago. Every person working in computer security knows this FACT. Do anything on a computer and you will be traced for sure unless you are a security guru at the cutting edge of cyber espionage. Plea se do not try to claim RT are not aware of this as you will insult your readers intelligence.

The WWW (Internet) is the only true democratic force in the world.

All other forms are pure deceptions (and by WWW, people can now understand this fact).

The only reason the elites want total control of the WWW is because their deception-democracy is exposed.
