- munchler 2y agoLearning too much about Linux puts you on a list? That can't be a thing. Isn't Linux itself entirely a civilian project?
- wolfram74 2y agoThe rationale mentioned was it was under the subheading of people interested in strong encryption, people who care about being unobservable might have something to hide. Maybe it's a good list? People who you might want to ramp up a new Bletchley Park? Probably not.
- Theodores 2y agoWhatever you do, don't broadcast on the airwaves, as in pirate radio. That really does put you on the list. I don't believe they have the people to monitor those that know 'how to use grep' and put them on a list. It stands to no reason, government civil servants are rarely from the top drawer.
