  • I can definitely place people above the line so to speak, but I dont think I could draw an objective one-size-fits-all line.

    Humanity is a continuous spectrum from people living in extreme poverty up to the one percent, and its very hard to find any clean delinineation that I would be comfortable drawing the line through.

    And the other problem is that the definition of that line would vary wildly from person to person.

    If I’m honest with myself, I live in a well off first world country, that in of itself means that I am indirectly responsible for a non-zero amount human suffering in other parts of the world. It doesnt necessarily make me black and white evil, but to someone in one of those parts of the world, they definitely might see it that way.

    I’m happy with death as a penalty for certain acts of evil, but I would want it to be the exception, not the rule. Everytime someone is death-row’d, we should all be unanimously sure that its the right thing to do.








  • Volume encryption would either mean typing a password at boot, or needing to use the TPM, which would get stolen with the NAS, so either very inconvenient, or useless.

    And I dont think anyone breaking in to steal a NAS is going to do it to read the data, they’ll sell the hardware for cash. Anyone who would break in for the data is likely a far more sophisticated threat, which is a bit paranoid.
