Well, ignoring that accusation made to myself, from someone who's profile
reveals nothing about him or herself...
So do the people who plant "bugdoors" in OpenSSL, and similar software, are
"great supporters for open source and strong encryption"...
Infowars has certainly done much more than Jacob Appelbaum, "for the free
community and the free society" - since, there's much more to fight for in
society, in terms of Freedom, than in the mere domain of which computer
programs should people use.
All that Appelbaum does for society, is:
- To say, to the people who fear the US government's intrusion on their
lives, for them to try to hide from Big Brother - which, as I've previously
said, in here, is a counterproductive attitude to take
(https://trisquel.info/en/forum/how-use-tor-trisquel#comment-26804). (While
Infowars, and the likes, say for people to fight this type of outrageous
surveillance, by neutralizing that same governmental threats to our privacy -
which I consider to be the correct attitude, for one to have.)
- And, also, to work for a clearly controlled mass media outlet, involved in
the process of manipulating and lying to the masses, in order to keep them
passive, obedient, and not a real threat to the same governmental-corporate
interests that violate our privacy - as it is clearly shown by this
publication's recent cooperation with Edward Snowden.
Snowden is an obvious CIA/NSA puppet (with an incredible story, only to be
swallowed by the more naïve - and by those not aware of what a "fake
desertion", often portrayed by intelligence assets, is - and) who's trying to
control the debate about corporate-governmental intrusions in our lives.
(And, for people with no, to very little, experience in activism - and, that
know nothing about the counter-actions that the mentioned
corporate-governmental interests take, in order to fight its opposition - the
key-terms used to describe this kind of operations, and that you should
inform yourselves about, are described here:

And, for Snowden to say that he uses a distribution based on the US
Government's "Tor" network (implying that it's a safe one, that other people
should use) it's just another clear indication of his true nature
