I tend to look for examples close to what I want to do, or tutorials. I would love if man pages were more consistent in giving clear examples for common use cases. This is much easier to parse quickly than detailed explanations.

This is horrific. Genuinely distressing that a teacher of children would choose to do something so intentionally destructive to a child.

For law enforcement, I think there’s a knee-jerk reaction among the upper echelons to cover themselves by blaming tech. I think politically, it’s easier to sell that, than “it’s because we’re underfunded, and everyone wants us to spend our budget on visible cops, rather than back-office ‘pen pushers’, so we simply cannot retain skilled investigators.”

The particularly irritating part is that it won’t work. Criminals will simply bypass it; citizens will lose rights and freedoms, be opened up to new attacks and deeper corporate surveillance and manipulation; and the last few skilled investigators will have an even bigger haystack to dig through, while their bosses whine about the next technology.
