Privacy

Yes, this was predictable. Breaking encryption was always a non-starter, it makes no sense even in theory. The real threat has always been client-side spyware. And technical fixes (like FOSS OSs) are band-aids, in the end they won't be enough, given that computing solutions will always be tailored to the majority, and most people just don't care much about privacy.

This is going to be an uphill battle given the monoculture of the mobile OS landscape - i.e. it's a duopoly of corporate giants vulnerable to arm-twisting by governments. It's winnable IMO but only if people resist cynicism. In the West we still have a measure of individual freedom, this is absolutely not the case in much of the world. Many people, especially younger people, seem to be unaware of this. If we're gonna save these freedoms while it's still possible we need to wake up and get more involved in politics. Unfortunately there's no other choice.
