Kermit Stokes -- protecting and serving the people -- in action!

I hate bad and big governance regardless of where it originates from. And yea, some of the problem comes from the 5-0.

There isn't one singular keyword I can search for -- as it covers a broad area of topics including but not limited to civil forfeiture, the drug war, no-knock warrants, animal killings, unnecessary use of SWAT teams, raiding the wrong home, "swatting", unnecessary and errant immediate escalation to deadly force, ticket quotas, uneven enforcement of the laws, uneven punishment for breaking the laws (aka "paid administrative leave"), horrendously expensive pensions, and public sector unions.

There isn't nearly so many areas to cover "I hate gay people and am probably secretly gay."

Wrong. VPN, SOCKS5 over SSH, TOR, and more. And much of it far easier to run on Linux than Windows too. I can drop a one liner in my BASH shell and boom instant SOCKS5 over SSH. On Windows? Wellllllllllllllll.......

The smartphone OS'es are reasaonably secure if you are careful with permissions. Android more so than iOS. As for the baseband that is running underneath Android and iOS (and on that cheap flip/burner you may think you are "securely" using instead) ... welllllllllllllllllll...... not so much. But you have to attract some serious black helicopters to have the baseband of your phone used against you. All phones, regardless, are also subject to location tracking.
