Why don't you tell us your full name and address. Also maybe post your email address and password, I just want to look through your communications and make sure you're safe. Don't worry, you have nothing to hide, right?

You can run WIndows on near bare-metal using gpu passthrough. That make it possible to play any game on linux, even Battlefield if you got the specs. Then there is wine. You just run "wine some.exe" and it runs pretty good. I run Resident Evil 4 in wine and it's flawless. I can also run Soul Reaver just fine. Need For Speed Carbon runs perfectly. Unreal Tournament... of course. There are tonnes of games you can play on linux.

No, you're still playing the game on Windows, in a VM running on Linux.

A whole bunch of reasons but since 4chan is topical here, consider the benefits of anonymity in discussion boards. Ethos is removed from the equation, removing authority-appealing bullshit and institutionally propagated ideas are able to be questioned. Ideas normally rejected by any audience as uninformed hogwash due to the populace's collective validation filter (or the filter artificially created by the feds and so installed if you're "woke") can stand on their own unaided merits. It's a simple enough concept that you probably get on some level if you're posting here, but for worries regarding privacy and global monitoring, take the same concepts and work in reverse.
Without the ability to compartmentalize your life according to your whim, your hand is shown in games you aren't even playing. Your public and/or monitored character is a unbroken gestalt of your outward actions and consumption. Without privacy walls, you'll be disregarded as an opinion holder, evidence presenter, or even firsthand account based on apparently unrelated views you hold. You'll constantly be targeted by inhumane advertisement campaigns scientifically designed to prey on whatever weakness or character flaw can be uncovered or extrapolated. The way you are treated and the options available to you will become dependent not on the capacities you hold and deem relevant, but by the interpretation of you generated by an algorithm, surveillance state, corporation, or public body.
Privacy is important, in part, because it is a tool that allows people to self-define or avoid unwanted definition. People should care about it because it's constantly slipping from our grasp, and the earliest canaries have started choking. Some say one canary is fine, or two or twelve. Others have already taken a hardline stance that just one dead canary is too much. But what do they know? Those people are crazy, they're all unkempt and unintelligent liberal arts hippies. Long hair = discarded opinion.

In that they both contain the same personal information of your life, just in different form.

A person scouring your computer, and say your bank accounts because you were so nice to leave the websites open or give out your username and password for all to see,
is not any different from them scouring your physical financial papers.

Do you open your doors to any policeman who decides to barge into your house for shits and giggles, or do you ask for a warrant?

The average users also don't give out their financial papers and make sure that nobody can get their hands on them through various means.

Because their houses are closed and secure.
Because you use a wallet to hold your documents and papers of value instead of keeping them in an open pocket that can be accessed by anyone around you.

Why? So unwanted people don't access it.
Same with a computer.

If you have no problem with the police having unwarranted access to all your computer information, including your bank accounts and financial accounts online;
then you shouldn't have a problem with allowing any random policeman into your house and scouring your wallets any time they please without your consent.

If you don't realize it's the same thing by this point, you are one dumb motherfucker.

Police is made up of humans. Humans have ambitions, circumstances that force them to do things they usually wouldn't, and they vary.
Humans induce inherent corruption into every system, which is why Internal Affairs exists, yet it is also not infallible.
Where corruption exists, interest in using people exists.
If people make it easy to use them, a corrupt individual will use them.

Privacy allows for free exploration of ideas and opinions. The moment you know or even feel that someone might be watching you, you limit yourself, you censor yourself. Without privacy there is no true freedom of thought.

I'll tell you why

Because browsing this shithole exposes you to statistically coming up to some faggot posting an image he shouldn't in a random thread. That image is then cached so the browser doesn't have to re-download it.

How is that bad? It usually isn't, unless stuff like this exists https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhotoDNA , in which case your innocent and accidental mouseover of the image now results into your statistical chance of being imprisoned within your lifetime multiplying. Nothing was prevented, no children saved, no criminals imprisoned - just you, an innocent random guy who forgot to block telemetry. And that's just pictures, don't forget all the other stuff like clicking that one google link or having shit like this https://www.wired.com/2017/02/googles-troll-fighting-ai-now-belongs-world/ crawl your forum and associate your IP with the stuff you ironically shatposted. Good luck explaining what ironic shitposting is in court.

Agreeing to something like that which puts you to a potential harm because "lol idc haha?" is the most retarded thing one can do. Yes, it's highly unlikely *now*, but 1) it will exponentially become more and more likely with every next surveillance stunt and 2) it wasn't even likely in the past, why the fuck do you agree with it being "unlikely" in the first place?

And again, that's just the infancy of it with the slow computers we currently have, imagine what a fucking hell it can become when deep learning improves.
>>
>>59427728
because if you disagree with national policy, you can be arrested for it vs organizing a counter movement.

The fact that you can't see the similarities between the two and decide to reject one because you're a closetfag homophobe even though the example is perfectly fine in the context of the argument just shows what a moron you are, and why anyone should be unwilling to waste time convincing you.
>>
>>59429880
>decide to reject one because you're a closetfag homophobe
Thats exactly what I told in the first place. You're going to refer to people who unironically believe in "You have nothing to hide argument", why you can't come up with something that doesn't make you look like SJW?

Get a fruit fly sized drone with a chemical sensor to check the salinity of my balls b4 and after I beat my meat. Get another drone to hover around the wasted life juice and do a sperm count to see if watching too many anime makes one infertile.

>>59429951
>why you can't come up with something
I can, but there's no point, why should I adjust anything in order to try convince the bottom of the barrel? People like you are mindless morons, I could convince you today, but if tomorrow someone shows you something shiny you'll be convinced of something else, like the drooling retard you are. It would be a waste of time and energy to convince you of literally anything. Nobody cares about opinions of idiots. I'm already getting tired of explaining why it's pointless explaining anything to people like you! Have your silly opinion, boo homo's! boo SJW! good for you lad, ignorance is bliss, have fun.
>>
>>59429880
Both arguments are fine in the context. But you have to take a guess which one people will like more - about homos who try to get more rights for themselves because of "equality" or history approved escape of slaves to their freedom?
>>
>>59429224
I'm the one who posted that picture and I would like to respond. Whenever I post that picture, the discussion goes to the topic of homophobia and homosexuality, while other arguments for caring about privacy as a human don't get discussed or get ignored altogether. I would also have to agree with Glenn Greenwald on the topic of surveillance and his opinion that it creates a prison in the mind of an individual.

If someone rejects a perfectly logical argument because he doesn't "like" an example used, that person should be ignored.

Because other arguments are easily understandable. And not controvercial. Thats why I suggested using something else. Everybody gets it that you lock door for a reason or something may suddenly be outlawed (reverse engineering made illegal because reasons will lead to people losing their interesting hobbies and slow progress).
>>
>>59427728
Because I don't trust the government. They could lock me up on the basis of things that have nothing to do with ethics. Just because something is illegal does not make it unethical. Just because the law grants the government certain powers (like indefinite detention of US citizens without a trial) does not mean it is ethical for them to use those powers.

It's so hilarious breaking your argument, because you can say the same thing over and over:

If you have nothing to hide, give me your credit card, social insurance number, and passport scans, along with your last five addresses and credit score history. Oh wait, you don't feel like handing that over to me? What does that mean? You have something to hide.

>yeah but im talking about hiding it from the government not you
As they say "by the people, for the people", so yes that includes me too. Do you honestly think all your data is safe with the government? During the Snowden leaks, we figured NSA virgins created their own database to spy on their loves and intrude into their daily life.

Anyone who thinks that they can gain an advantage over another will use available information if they can access it. Especially if they think they won't get caught doing so. It's human nature to do so. By protecting your privacy you are not only protecting your freedom but also protecting against those few bad apples in society. Malware exists for a reason.

>t. niggeraguan

>>
>>59430397
That's the point, you're attacking a strawman. No one here's defending the end of privacy. But the police HAS the right to investigate crimes too. That's a fact, and they already have the power to look into your things if they can get a warrant. It's ALREADY like that.

The problem is: encryption is a mechanism that breaks that pattern. Suddenly the police doesn't have the right to investigate crimes anymore. Why is it so bad to have secure asymmetric law-enforcement-only backdoors on our encryption? Nothing will change for you unless you're a criminal. Your private stuff won't suddenly be visible by everyone. Not even the authorities can see your stuff unless they have a good reason to do it.

If you're against this, then you must axiomatically be against the system we currently have, because the police can already break into your home if they have a warrant.

>b-but they can misuse their power
True. They can misuse their current power too. Should we take away all their power? Are you all basically anarchists?

>>59430562
Search warrants require a full legal procedure, and can easily be countered by legal action in case they are misused. What you defend is their freedom to look at your data freely whenever they feel like, with no way to prevent it or receive any warning, and making it extremely difficult to take a matter of power abuse to court. It should be banned for the same reason that torture should be banned, because it can easily spiral out of control.

>That's the point, you're attacking a strawman. No one here's defending the end of privacy. But the police HAS the right to investigate crimes too. That's a fact, and they already have the power to look into your things if they can get a warrant. It's ALREADY like that.

The police can investigate individuals if a court of law believes there's reasonable grounds to, so they can get a warrant to do that. The police and other government agencies intruding the privacy of their population looking through illegally harvested data at random is completely by-passing the entire process of obtaining a warrant.

>Why is it so bad to have secure asymmetric law-enforcement-only backdoors on our encryption?

What are you trying to say, encryption isn't useful unless you're a person with bad intentions?

Law enforcement only backdoors into encryption is a very volatile topic. It's why Trump hates Apple. Tim Cook and the rest of Silicon Valley realized that "law enforcement only" backdoors breaks the integrity of their technology. What next, if this "law enforcement only" backdoor gets implemented, if hackers figure out how to access this backdoor? Millions upon millions of products and devices are now vulnerable to this little "peace keeping" backdoor.

>If you're against this, then you must axiomatically be against the system we currently have, because the police can already break into your home if they have a warrant.

>True. They can misuse their current power too. Should we take away all their power? Are you all basically anarchists?

I can be for our current form of a social democracy while being a privacy enthusiast. Nobody said that warrants are bad, as they must be justified in a court of law. What is bad, is government agents bypassing these procedures and invading the privacy of their population via means of illegally obtained databases.
>>
>>59430520
What the fuck are you talking about you fucking retard

I can think or imagine "illegal" stuff, yet the police can't read my mind. Is this a problem? Or I can explain verbally in privacy to my friend how all jews should hang, which is an obvious "crime", and the police will never be able to retrieve information about it. Is this a problem as well?

The problem here is in your definition of what the police should be allowed to actively inspect, and (excluding for some major cases like bank fraud) information is not one of those. It's the equivalent of having all your citizens wiretapped. No, it's no the equivalent - it's literally that.

Your own link shows that most people on that list who used encryption, whether broken through or intact, still were sentenced to life sentences or a few years. Encryption isn't a boogeyman.

lmao encryptards BTFO
>>
>>59430755
Not only were all those people sentenced regardless of the supposed "lack of evidence", but they were also sentenced assuming that the encrypted contents are the only evidence. In other words - those people wouldn't get sentenced 30 years ago when PCs weren't as widely spread, which obviously wasn't a problem for those times, was it?

Not only is the supposed gain from the active surveillance so minor that it's irrelevant, but also should you actually grant the government the power you want it to have, most criminals would simply switch back to paper documents that can be burned within 30 seconds. But at the same time, the entire fucking nation would be wiretapped when back in the day it was hard (and controversial) to get an order for even one house

This firstly, >>59430839

The point is that encryption isn't some scary thing that only helps criminals. If it were, your bank wouldn't be using encryption, your work login wouldn't be using encryption, and even basic services wouldn't be using encryption if it's sole purpose was helping criminals.

You can permanently disable or murder people with hammers. You can also build houses with hammers. You don't go out and make everyone with a hammer replace their tools with plastic rods. The same goes for encryption.

No. It's just an argument for secure asymmetric law-enforcement-only backdoors.

Now I want to know why grandma is living among a bunch of prostitutes. Also, I think you forgot to mention that you would lose access to the reindeer meatballs if you get arrested. That of course should make anyone paranoid of losing their privacy.

Lesson, we also may rebel if not given the ability to lock the bathroom door after our stomach gets upset with the reindeer meatballs that grandma fails to make as good as the ones in the bar. It also makes it good to hide the fact that you are making out with another male, perhaps your grandfather. You must be allowed to have gay sex with your grandfather or the moral fabric of society will break down.

Because privacy is a right, vert closely linked to freedom of movement, freedom of speech and freedom of religion.

I couldn't care either way. All I do is stay at home and hang out with girlfriend, go to the gym and go to work.

As long as nothing interrupts that routine and my buying power then I couldn't care.
>>
>>59431404
That wasn't my argument either. My argument is that people should care about their rights and engage in any discussion regarding their rights.

I mean, there are people that are more worried about not being able to buy pointy shooty pew pews without a waiting period of 2 days than that care about government spying on them and corporations selling their personal data and personality profiles to other companies. You don't think that is alarming in any way?

If you're not prone to doing illegal things, isn't being more subservient and limiting your actions a manipulative and exploitative thing?
The vast majority of people aren't criminals, however constant invasions to their privacy cull them in other ways.

Why take a risk on self-employment when you've been conditioned to be subservient your whole life? Why not just pick the safe option and work for someone else and make them rich off your labor?
