There is that, but in a more general sense I think people like conspiracies because they have a deep need to believe that there is an intelligent direction to human affairs, even if it is malign, and that the world is not actually chaotic and uncontrolled at the largest scale. It stems I suppose from infancy when even while we pushed at them we needed to know the unfathomable rules our parents set came from a better understanding of things than was available to us.

Have you considered Spiegel im Spiegel.

The only containers I have are Tupperware, are they secure do you know.

And Herod’s first wife was called Doris.

Certainly at the time there was talk of coercion, there was talk the developers had been asked to put in a backdoor, had refused and then been encouraged to cease and desist their work on TrueCrypt and provide written recommendation of BitLocker, the wording of which did not seem to be their own. But people like conspiracies, maybe the authors did just move on, and if that was encouraged it probably was not as sinister as suggested. Security and privacy will always be duking it out.

You mean that thing everyone knew about since the authorities derailed open-source TrueCrypt and forced them to message their users that they should migrate to BitLocker?

Sugar is used as a preservative but until you make your own jam you have no conception of how much sugar is used, jam is just jelly for adults.

Self preservation is a natural high priority instinct in all organisms so most people are fairly pro about it and any few that are not will not last long enough to comment here. If you are referring to cryogenics when you say self preservation then I regard that as just a slightly desperate and unscientific example of the instinctual self preservation I mentioned first.

Would that it were so simple.

It is almost like non technical people who can not follow technical advice are making all the decisions.
