We reject techniques like torture regardless of whether they're effective or ineffective because they are barbaric and harmful on a broad scale. It's the same thing with cyber warfare. We should never be attacking hospitals. We should never be taking down power plants unless that is absolutely necessary to ensure our continued existence as a free people.

Are our competitors - for example, China, which is a deeply authoritarian nation - becoming more authoritarian or more liberal over time?

We have the right of revolution. Revolution does not always have to be weapons and warfare; it's also about revolutionary ideas.

Technology provides us means outside of governments to begin enforcing our rights, enforcing protection of civil liberties, regardless of law, through the implementation of systems and standards.

Being confronted with the realization that work you intended to benefit people is being used against them has a radicalizing effect.

It is afraid of an informed, angry public demanding the constitutional government it was promised - and it should be.

Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped.
