or are they just being racist and assuming that they are right, being protected more by the incompetence of most terrorists than their actual techniques?

Except that I'm far from alone, and more people are starting to get concerned. I think that this kind of insane bullshit is exactly what Hawking was talking about regarding aggression being a threat to humanity.

Except this windmill is one of if not the closest thing to a dragon in this world. The stupid paranoia of incompetent spies has come close on a few occasions to causing enormous damage to large chunks of human civilization as well. For the sake of species security, the spooks need to go ASAP. Fortunately, they aren't useful anymore, and their utility was pretty limited to begin with, and they were probably always a net liability.

TSA policies are security theater. Film at 11.

So because I find your 'everybody's doing it' argument an insufficient justification, you suggest that I kill myself? You're certainly a champion of intellectualism.

That's a ridiculous argument, as surveillance has a chilling effect. It's not a hard restriction of freedom, but that doesn't really make a difference, and soft restrictions are easier to hide and deny.

I actually have been having difficulty posting. /. incompetence or grand conspiracy?

I actually can't seem to post right now. Probably just /. issue, but I'm looking for black helicopters.

Thank you for your contribution.

I seem to be having trouble posting ATM, so perhaps there are some helicopters waiting to swoop me up . Pre-preemptive apologies if this all appears several times when /. gets it together.

Or, you spy in peacetime to create war. Wars usually are the results of growing internal or external tensions, and any country large enough to not be militarily curbstomped in a day has enough restraint to not launch a war without obvious precursors. Plus, spies have a long history of being massive idiots who fuck everything up, which is a good way to cause a war.

or that the American government has the slightest inkling about trying to not be conspicuous.

In the long run, it can definitely make Canada safer. Prohibiting this behavior means that we won't do stupid shit that will cause even more enemies.to appear. The number of threats that the Anglosphere faces that we didn't create ourselves is incredibly small.

It's not a tradeoff at all. Our intelligence agencies are likely the biggest threat to our security today. We are giving up liberty to be in more danger.
