Didn't expect this kind of outlet to show up here.
I find it sad that a whole article can be dismissed due to where it is published. By itself, it is completely fine and blasts already open doors to the HN crowd, but I like its concise wording and how it phrases some points, like the one about GMail.
Though it is quite interesting that such a privacy stance on "I have nothing to hide" comes in an allegedly neo-nazi paper, knowing this is the mindset that led so many people to be tracked by nazis. People knowingly went to nazi census. I find it quite ironic.

The contents of the article aren't interesting. You don't invite fascists in because they happen to have a point or act politely occasionally.

Upstream security response will always be better, your "builtin" features doesn't mean its more lightweight and it adds more attack vectors to a less vetted product.
