diddledanali1234: it's a conspiracy22:16
zmoylan-pii knew you were going to say that!22:16
diddledanthe idea is to prevent you from scanning stuff in an attempt to reduce the size of emails22:17
diddledanthe internet is at breaking point, see, so the powers that be are attempting to reduce email traffic to allow the internet to last another 2 weeks22:18
zmoylan-pithink of the bandwidth if you could enforce a ban on cat videos...22:19
diddledanyeah but those are too pervasive. there would be outcry if cats were censured22:19
zmoylan-pieven a netflix like isp cache for cat videos would save a bucket load of bandwidth...22:26
daftykinsdiddledan: or it could be Linux working as well as usual22:27
zmoylan-pii dunno, i still have scars from scanning in windows...22:27
diddledanwait, linux doesn't work well?22:27

diddledanthe question is, if you're livestreaming publicly, does the NSA still hack into your video separately?22:52
zmoylan-piyes, because they can22:53
