Why?
- khairul 13y agoBecause it's a tired, overabused cliche.
- agilebyte 13y agoBut we are not grading an English essay are we? The content of the article was quite good for a "normal" non-tech person.
- herghost 13y agoI don't think the content of the article was particularly good. The advice on how to protect yourself from being spied on is essentially: "stop using the internet; or use HTTPS - which is probably compromised anyway; or encrypt - which is probably compromised anyway; or use a VPN - which I will say next to nothing about" It's just a rehash of points and opinions already better expressed elsewhere.
- lttlrck 13y agoWe don't wan to read an English essay either.
- ronaldx 13y agoI dislike it particularly because of the implication of stupidity: "I believe only stupid people won't know this, but I'm going to tell you anyway". In general it's poor form to assume readers know anything - consider (for example) a future lay-reader who is trying to find out this information.
