Economies are lowly tools that are supposed to exist solely to benefit the people of the society they are a lowly tool for.
What complete gutter trash talk. Economies serve the master of mankind.
When was the last time VLC paid $50K USD for a proper security audit?
It’s possible to get a virus from any data that enters your computer full stop.
Likelyhood wise: that virus on the MKV will have to attack the operating system preview system (which means you fucked all the way up to personal nation state attention), or attack the video player (which is a lot more likelier, they discover theoretical exploits all the time).
You’re talking about streaming with VLC? Was it a trusted source? Cause otherwise the FBI or script kiddie has probably fucked you up.
As a side note, I've completed writing this guide and have found that HexChat is no longer supported.

It’s protocols over platforms. I’m not too worried about the protocol.
My opinion is that concealed filming be inadmissible in court without a “warrant” to allow its entry as evidence. Prosecutors have to state what they hope the concealed video will contain, and only that portion can be used.
Too many missing people for me to agree entirely that concealed filming is completely bad.
I don’t believe that the NSA has a portal giving them direct access (probably naive).
They definitely have a secret agent 🕵️♀️ nerd on the inside providing intel on the structure. Maybe inject exploits or guide them when needed.
They definitely have a direct e-mail address to cloudflare legal to serve national security letters that cloud flare is obligated to comply with. Which is a portal with extra steps, but which cloud flare can raise a fuss if they notice the requests are turning into vacuum cleaners, and not union membership research.
Most important part of the blog post:
We are planning a 3rd party security audit for the protocols and cryptography design in July 2024, and also the security audit for an implementation in December 2024/January 2025, and it would hugely help us if some part of this $50,000+ expense is covered with donations.
Signal is a close second.

No where in history was that a legitimate trade. Only her father would take such a dumb deal.
Aristocrats can afford to pay a house at a minimum. Don’t let them devalue your worth.
