      You are saying that Apple would sabbotage the Network?

        I’m saying whatever the state is would. Its why behind the scene the state is always working overtime to secure its communication networks. If you develop something like tor, you’re watched like a hawk. Tor isn’t the network. But it provides some tools for anonymity.

        I remember an interview with one of its devs who said they were constantly stopped at borders and flights and inspect. Any devices they had were taken in the back and returned.

        At one point the dev was put on a no fly list. All attributed to building better anonymity tools.

        Apple and any other company do not matter. Its not like these devices are ham radios

        This wasn’t the dev I remember since it was a male. But here’s another example of it happening

        Personally, I think massive surveillance by the government is a much better option for them. Apple could cooperate with this (they already do in PRISM, maybe they could hand over data) but this would be much more effective than shutdowns.

        Communicate and give away your secrets, comrades, and we’ll be watching, always watching… :fbi-posting:

      There exist apps to create resilient communication networks over Bluetooth. But that requires that a lot of people have them prior to the network going down.
