You are correct. I am very doubtful that attempts to restore personal freedoms via a captured and entirely corrupt legal system will produce meaningful results. 

What such efforts might do however, is provide people with a false sense that they (or, even better, other people) are “doing something about it” when in fact it is just more of the same bullshit. 

Furthermore, I think that Lyn’s approach will not only be non-productive, but worse, it risks being counter-productive by lending legitimacy to an illegitimate process and system and distracting from the true changes that need to occur quickly. 

I have no idea if Lyn has children or not,  but if she doesn’t, that probably will do more for the planet and humanity than any of the efforts she describes above. 

The entire system must go and the only non violent way I see to achieve this is via mass refusal to participate in it any longer. 

Of course others are allowed to offer up their ideas as well. I will continue to live mine though, and practice what I preach, unlike the parents who say they will die for their kids and then do nothing but surf Facebook and post edgy memes about the sorry state of the world.

 Has the battle over encrypted communication not been worthwhile? How does that differ?
