Freedom is deeper than the keyboard, deeper than government

"Appearing by telepresence robot, Edward Snowden speaks at TED2014 about surveillance and Internet freedom. The right to data privacy, he suggests, is not a partisan issue, but requires a fundamental rethink of the role of the internet in our lives — and the laws that protect it. "Your rights matter," he say, "because you never know when you're going to need them." Chris Anderson interviews, with special guest Tim Berners-Lee."

Freedom is deeper than the keyboard, deeper than government.
It's about whether people around you defend freedom, or slavery.
That is what freedom consists of.

And people, including you, Edward Snowden, defense slavery.

Doesn't matter if your code is the most beautiful thing.

If people don't let you live your life, it doesn't belong to you.

Nothing does.

Your only security, long-term, is people not defending the systematic violation of basic human rights -- taxation, which is theft, is the source code of 99% of the shit in society, and you're defending a code exemption:

Law.

Law is the opposite of rules.

It's being exempt to the rules.

You lose.
