Well Anning, of course, how could he be talking about the other bloke?

No, you can't. That is not how it works. All messages are either encrypted end-to-end using an algorithm (which to provide a back door to means providing a back door to all messages) or by inspecting all the encrypted data on a platform.

Oh how I wish we had a PM of that class.
I'm not an expert, but: 4chan has always been the arsehole of the internet. Pretty much every offensive meme throughout the history of the internet originated there, from /b/ in particular. However, it is mostly just 30-year-old guys who still live in their parents' basement trying to be edgelords. They say all that offensive s**t on /pol/ - calling each other "n*****s" and "f*****s" - as a joke, and because they can get away with it.
8chan, on the other hand, is a legit hellhole from what I've heard. It's 4chan on steroids, and most of the degenerates on there aren't joking. 4chan started cracking down on certain things (child pr0n, death threats) and so I guess all the real lowlifes migrated over.
This is so good.

You're missing the point that in earlier eras of history religion was a valuable tool that allowed human beings to not only morally orient themselves in the world, but also offered the best available explanation at the time for why and how the world existed and was the way it was.
Times have changed and it can be argued science has rendered religion's teachings obsolete, yet there's no doubt billions still derive palpable benefit from religion and if asked would unhesitatingly attest it enriches their lives. Which is why I'm not in the least opposed to religion provided those who practice it don't attempt to force their views onto others. Peaceful religion that adds meaning to lives? Great. Toxic religion that justifies violence? Now you've lost me.
Obviously its also true there's never a shortage of unscrupulous folk out there willing to exploit religion for their own purposes, but if religion went away they'd simply find other power structures and belief systems to abuse. Con-artists latch onto whatever they can find and they'll always find something, nor will there ever be a lack of willing saps as you mentioned.

No, it's not that simple. In the military we used encryption that literally changes the algorithm each time you plug the 'egg' (as we called it) into the radios. * knows how it works (only the chooks knew that s**t) but unless both sides were using the same device, it was effectively uncrackable.
I doubt ASIS are going to Facebook and requesting they decrypt 30 million Aussie citizens encrypted messenger chats, or how on earth they would be able to do anything with that data (let alone have the man-hours to actually read it all). They'll have a few suspects of interest and they'll subpoena those messages, in de-encrypted format.
Dont worry mate, your dick pics are secure for another day.

Ah man, that's mental. This is all new to me as my life pretty much consists of my few hobbies, none of which are on the internet. I have no Twitter, no Facebook, no Instagram. Nothing.
All of this stuff has blown my mind - this internet is a dark place. I hate it.

The victimization of the right in here is astounding. I'm sick of hearing "both sides are as bad as each other". Show me the body count to back it up.
I don't care if I get called out for "political point scoring". Today was an absolute tragedy, but there inevitably has to be a conversation about ideology here, no matter how much people want to avoid it (for obvious reasons).

Dont want to burst your bubble, but the attacker wasnt religious.
Unless your argument is that he wouldnt have perpetrated the attack unless he WAS religious, and in that case I posit 'ISIS'.
Plenty of killings have been perpetrated by both athiests and fundamentalists alike man.

A clearer picture of the unashamed authoritarian emerges.
The whole manifesto of religion is to force it on other people, violently or sneakily, that will never change. Their own business model relies on expansion and membership, it is kind of naive to think religion will just peacefully exist among themselves. Their manifesto also includes not tolerating other religions, that's why they slaughter each other so much in the developing countries. Telling religion to not force it on other people is like telling an unneutered dog not to hump your leg
While the Christchurch shooting is absolutely evil and abhorrent, these kind of stuff happen on a daily basis in the Middle East, by the hands of religious extremists instead of a white supremacists and no one care or bat an eyelid. We only become outraged and disgusted when it happens to a beautiful peaceful country like New Zealand in the craziest way possible because the sick * streamed that s**t. Violence relating to religion happen everywhere, whether committing by the religions or to the religions, it will never stop as long as they exists. Religions just exist to divide society

Anning. I didn't read the Kiwi's response.
No, he has developed a smirky grin which is hard to change in an instant.
Comes from years as a politician trying to look oh so clever & all knowing, when he's really just as clever as a brick.

Yes, but let's say someone wants to crack it whenever they need it, and the algorithm changes for each communication. You don't know the given algorithm in advance. How do you design the algorithm(s) to do this? It must be crackable for all algorithms, meaning all communications are open.
Easy - spin up a bunch of EC2s on AWS with lots of graphics cards attached and run them all through a machine learning algorithm. This is what the Chinese do, although they don't need subpoenas.
Mostly sent to FireKraquora's girlfriends.
4chan used to be a lot worse. You'd stumble across child pr0n, bestiality and other obscenities without much effort. I guess when 4chan started cracking down on all that stuff, along with the removal of discussion of the "Gamergate" scandal, the degenerates moved elsewhere.

I'm not suggesting the attacker was religious, merely replying to another post on the topic. That said, obviously religion has an important place in this discussion given the victims were Muslim.
Naturally atrocities have been committed by religious & secular folk alike. Humans hardly only use religion to justify violence, but also racial hatred, greed, ambition, and in some cases no reason at all except they're bored and want to watch something die. Its impossible to truly climb inside the mind of the terrorist but that won't stop us trying.

Yes. I do.
He still has tattoos, but he puts it down to being a lonely, confused young man who didn't have a dad, struggled with girls, and found mates who were cool to him so long as he believed.
Now a normal dude who sees his tattoos as part of his past.
Fraser Annings tweets are something else.
Regardless of anyone's thoughts on Islam or immigration in general, it is beyond piss poor taste what he said.
How can he be removed from his position?
