(Yup, we're Welsh...) 08:43 < aestetix_> (Tom Ridge is the former governor of PA and was the first secretary of DHS) 08:43 < aestetix_> He gave a keynote where he emphasized the value of privacy. 08:43 < aestetix_> They did a Q&A after the keynote, and I basically asked 08:43 < aestetix_> "That was a fantastic speech. But I wonder how someone can give a speech like that who was the head of the DHS?" 08:44 < aestetix_> It basically floored the crowd, and he looked like nobody had asked him a question like that in a long time. 08:44 < Ignotus_> how did that end? I frankly like that question. 08:44 < aestetix_> He gave a non-answer because there is really no good way to answer it. 08:45 < aestetix_> And it's true. I really did like his speech. 08:45 < aestetix_> But I did not like the ironic hypocrisy. 08:45 < aestetix_> rattle: do you think that burned any bridges for me? 08:45 < aestetix_> On the plus side, he *will* remember me. 08:45 <@rattle> shrug. 08:45 < aestetix_> I went up to chat with him afterwards and he said "That was a *really* good question." 08:46 <@rattle> As long as you didn't ask it with a "fuck you" tone, probably not. 08:46 <@rattle> Because it's a legit question.. 08:46 < aestetix_> Adversarial, but respectful. 08:46 <@rattle> Then I don't see a problem. 08:46 < aestetix_> Everyone at the conference thought it was great. 08:47 < aestetix_> But yeah. There's no point in asking that with a fuck you tone. Maybe there is a valid explanation for it. 08:48 < aestetix_> rattle: maybe it's me, but it seems like nobody in DC asks questions like that anymore? 08:48 < aestetix_> rattle: also, I assume you're going to HOPE. 08:52 <@rattle> It doesn't appear like I'm going to be making it to HOPE. I've got a pretty full calendar. I don't think I can swing it. 08:53 < aestetix_> rattle: you did see who our keynote is, right? 08:55 <@rattle> Frosty the Snowden? 08:55 < aestetix_> haha 08:56 <@rattle> Oh way, I didn't realize I was missing the opportunity to go down to NYC to watch a webcast. Damn. 08:56 <@rattle> s/way/wow/ 08:56 <@rattle> I'm really bummed to be missing out on the giant circle jerk. 08:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> rattle: don't worry, they are going to have him pop out of a cake 08:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> its his big surprise coming home party 08:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> lol 08:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> aestetix_: watch out if you are using skype 08:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> apparently you can DDOS skype users easily, if you know their name 08:59 < aestetix_> RangerZ|Laptop: Ellsberg will actually be there in person. 08:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> thats cruel 08:59 < aestetix_> er rattle 08:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> making him pop out of a cake like that 08:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> he's old you know... 08:59 < aestetix_> haha 09:00 < aestetix_> rattle: you have the same feelings about Ellsberg? 09:02 <@rattle> Depends on how you're interpreting my feelings. I continue to get a kick out of sitting back and watching this all play out. I think it's a net positive for the relationship between the people and our security infrastructure, even if I think some of the plays on the team-Snowden side have been naive. 09:03 < aestetix_> rattle: I'm not necessarily pro-Snowden by any means. 09:03 < aestetix_> I am pro free speech though. 09:04 <@rattle> I think many of the plays on the natsec side have been overly reaching as well. It's all grey by it's own nature. 09:04 < aestetix_> And we have some serious issues in our country right now. 09:05 <@rattle> Oh, I've got no issues with him speaking at all. As I said, I'm bummed to be missing out on the giant circle jerk. 09:05 < aestetix_> Um. 09:05 < aestetix_> Would you rather go to the party in the desert which is circle jerking from the other side? 09:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> who says he should have to choose 09:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> lol 09:06 <@rattle> Exactly. 09:06 < aestetix_> Hah, that's fair. 09:07 < aestetix_> rattle: DC seems to have a lot of crust around it right now which really, really needs to be scraped off. 09:07 <@rattle> Forcing people like me to "pick a side" is saying you want the problem to get worse. 09:07 < aestetix_> rattle: you're the one who framed it as a circle jerk 09:07 <@rattle> It is. 09:07 <@rattle> On both sides. 09:07 < aestetix_> One thing I will say 09:08 < aestetix_> The NSA is nothing compared to the data brokers, which are the real problem in the US 09:08 <@rattle> And the majority of people in each one has their heads up their own asses, refusing the acknowledge the practical reality of the other. 09:08 < aestetix_> rattle: I'll strongly agree with that. 09:09 < aestetix_> But I'll also point out there's a power imbalance at play. 09:09 <@rattle> When isn't there? 09:09 < aestetix_> It's hard to have a reasonable debate with someone when they have their foot on your head. 09:09 <@rattle> Got any historical precedent for that? 09:10 <@rattle> When is power ever in balance? 09:10 <@rattle> And what would a balance consist of? 09:10 < aestetix_> So can one logically conclude there has never been a time when folks didn't have their heads up their asses? 09:11 <@rattle> I'd argue that by virtue of the fact that all the HOPE attendees are not going to be rounded up and thrown into labor camps as a sign that we're at least getting something right. 09:11 <@rattle> At least in comparison to the other powers you can consent to. At least we can disagree with this one and not be completely oppressed. 09:11 < aestetix_> rattle: no, but their personal data gets sold from the DMV to places like Axciom that resell it to credit agencies 09:12 <@rattle> And I'm not saying I approve of that. 09:12 <@rattle> Hell, I'm in the business of helping people protect the confidentiality of their data. 09:13 <@rattle> And I'm certainly not someone who's happy with the status quo. 09:13 < aestetix_> So, has there ever been a status quo you were happy with? 09:13 <@rattle> No. 09:13 < aestetix_> Ok. So do you remain unhappy, or try to do something about it? 09:14 <@rattle> Are you trolling me? 09:14 < aestetix_> No. 09:14 < aestetix_> Actually I was gonna use this to point out the list of dissenters on the HOPE website 09:14 <@rattle> Dissenters? 09:14 < aestetix_> I bet when Rose Parks pulled her bus thing, there were a lot of idiot groupies who circle jerked around that 09:15 < aestetix_> http://x.hope.net/dissenters.html 09:15 <@rattle> I don't think you're pinning me the right way here. 09:15 < aestetix_> rattle: ok, how should I be pinning you? 09:21 <@rattle> As someone who actual deals with protecting trillions of dollars and millions of lives, while trying to effect these situations to bend the arc of liberty in the direct direction, and not having the hipster tendency to compare what I do to Lenny Bruce and Emerson. 09:21 <@rattle> s/direct/correct/ 09:21 < aestetix_> Emerson? 09:21 < aestetix_> Do you mean Thoreau? 09:21 < Ignotus_> any lack of a "hipster tendency" gives me happies. 09:21 < aestetix_> Most hipsters I've run into love Walden 09:22 < aestetix_> rattle: or are you mocking me because I love Lenny Bruce :p 09:22 < aestetix_> (although I simply admire, I don't self-compare) 09:25 <@rattle> I love Lenny Bruce too. :) And Bill Hicks. 09:25 < aestetix_> And carlin. 09:25 <@rattle> But comparing them to Snowden is exactly what I mean by a circle jerk. 09:25 < aestetix_> Who the fuck does that? 09:25 < aestetix_> That's really stupid 09:26 <@rattle> You just did!! That dissenters thing you just posted!!!! 09:26 < aestetix_> oh heh 09:26 < aestetix_> No, I was simply recognizing dissenters 09:26 < aestetix_> They were dissenters who stood up against something they disagreed with. 09:26 < aestetix_> Snowden did that too. I don't fully agree with him, but I do agree he dissented. 09:27 <@rattle> And the thing is, much of the community present at HOPE is more concerned with voicing their anger and comparing themselves to "dissenters" to feel better about themselves then they are about actually effecting positive change. 09:27 < aestetix_> rattle: I think it's less self-comparison, and more looking at what others have done to learn. 09:27 < Ignotus_> dissenters? I'll take Boudica for $800, Alex... 09:27 <@rattle> Getting close to power, gaining it's trust, and trying to effect it's direction is HARD. A lot harder than sitting on twitter and rattling off Chomsky quotes about how bad the power is. 09:28 < aestetix_> Uh. 09:28 <@rattle> And I'm not trying to talk shit on you here. You tend to have an open mind about the reality of this stuff and have insightful comment. 09:28 < aestetix_> That's acting as a repeater, not actually understanding what they are about. 09:29 < aestetix_> (and I'll agree that Chomsky can be annoying) 09:29 < aestetix_> Whereas I think Lenny Bruce and Arthur Miller, for example, were really amazing. 09:29 < aestetix_> I'd say the same about Ellsberg. 09:29 < aestetix_> I don't think we've seen the full effects of Snowden's actions yet. 09:29 < Ignotus_> What do you think they might be? 09:30 < Ignotus_> (true request for opinion, not trolling) 09:30 < aestetix_> Ignotus_: of Snowden? that is *really* complicated. 09:30 < aestetix_> Ignotus_: the first question I'd ask is "who benefits and who loses" 09:30 <@rattle> I agree. It's really complicated. 09:30 < Ignotus_> yeah, I'm split in several areas on it and a former army guy. 09:30 < Ignotus_> and =as 09:31 <@rattle> There are up-sides and down-sides, and the ramifications of many of them are not going to be clear for years. 09:31 < aestetix_> But yeah. Hearing some idiot calling black people niggers and then saying "oh I'm like lenny bruce" is really fucking stupid. 09:31 <@rattle> And I acknowledge it's easy for someone like me to sit around and criticize what they've disclosed and how they've disclosed it when I'm not in their position. 09:32 < aestetix_> rattle: which is why I'm *really* interested to see what questions Dan Ellsberg will ask Snowden. 09:32 < aestetix_> Since Ellsberg has been thinking about this topic for longer than Snowden has been alive. 09:33 < aestetix_> In the short term, there's the "end the war" and "end the surveillance state". In the long term, destroying the public's trust in government may really help free market capitalists who hate regulation. 09:33 < Ignotus_> I *really* need to research this more. I came into it late, so I only really have the "NSA spied on you, this is how, I'm tellin' everybody" story. 09:33 < aestetix_> Which is where the "Snowden is trying to undo the long term effects of the New Deal" theory comes into play 09:34 < aestetix_> rattle: you familiar with that theory? 09:34 < Ignotus_> I have a severe lack of trust in damn near everything to begin with. 09:34 < aestetix_> rattle: also, in "getting close to power, gaining its trust, and trying to change direction" you forgot "and not getting corrupted by it" 09:38 <@rattle> Yeah, that's actually one of by big concerns. 09:38 < aestetix_> Which? 09:39 <@rattle> If we can't trust the government, it shifts power to the wealthy. 09:39 < aestetix_> Yep! 09:39 < aestetix_> Which works out really well for corporations getting held back by regulations. 09:40 < aestetix_> You do know Snowden is a registered libertarian, right? :) 09:40 <@rattle> Or another way to look at it..

17:40 < aestetix_> by definition that means you are not in control of the car 17:41 <@Mirage> there's this cool thing called google. if you type in the box the phrase "impound fees for stolen cars" then hit search, lots of articles show up about this and the outrage around it. 17:41 < aestetix_> wow 17:42 < aestetix_> ok so it says the insurance company should cover it 17:42 <@Mirage> should and will are two entirely different things...esp when ins companies are involved. 17:42 < aestetix_> I was unaware of this kind of fee. 17:43 < aestetix_> I wonder how this is legal 17:44 < aestetix_> heh from one article 17:44 < aestetix_> "You will probably be relieved when you get the call that your stolen car has been recovered -- unless you live in San Francisco." 17:46 <@Mirage> aestetix_: this one's awesome. http://www.myfoxla.com/story/25268834/man-refusing-2nd-round-of-vehicle-impound-fees-after-apparent-error 17:46 <@GateKeeper> Title: Man refusing 2nd round of vehicle impound fees - Los Angeles News | FOX 11 LA KTTV (at www.myfoxla.com) 17:46 < aestetix_> https://www.change.org/petitions/state-of-california-stop-impound-fees-for-stolen-vehicles-to-the-victim 17:47 < aestetix_> hmm 17:48 < aestetix_> from one site 17:48 < aestetix_> Ask towing company for proof of claim, as evidenced by a signed contract. 17:48 < aestetix_> File a report with the police, against the towing company, for theft. 17:48 < aestetix_> When the police refuse to take the claim for "theft" on the grounds that they ordered the car to be removed, present the police with the bill for the car's removal. 17:55 < RangerZ|Laptop> aestetix_: yes they can 17:55 < RangerZ|Laptop> from your first question 17:55 < RangerZ|Laptop> because THEY Didn't tow the car 17:55 < RangerZ|Laptop> they hired a company to do it (most likely) 17:55 < aestetix_> that is fucked up 17:56 < aestetix_> this does not increase my respect for law enforcement 17:56 < RangerZ|Laptop> and even if they did, it was probably "to better society" by removing the stolen car from w/e it was 17:56 < RangerZ|Laptop> b/c its probably NOT someplace you want it 17:56 < aestetix_> well 17:56 < aestetix_> they could have done the courtesy of a phone call 17:56 < aestetix_> "hey we found your car come get it or else we'll tow it" 17:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> yes/no 17:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> depending on CSI , etc 17:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> but ignoring that 17:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> yeah 17:57 < aestetix_> so moral of the story is fuck the police 17:57 <@Corydon76-home> I would check with your insurance company whether they might cover the towing fee. 17:57 < RangerZ|Laptop> yeah, how dare they find your stolen car 17:57 < aestetix_> Corydon76-home: it looks like they will 17:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> honestly, you're just pissed, and throwing it at the wrong people 17:58 < aestetix_> RangerZ|Laptop: I'd rather they hadn't if they are trying to stick a hidden fee on us 17:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> then be against privatization 17:58 < aestetix_> RangerZ|Laptop: no, I'm annoyed because this is illogical and counterproductive. 17:58 < aestetix_> How about being pro-communication 17:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> how it is counter-productive? 17:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> they 'seized' the car 17:58 < RangerZ|Laptop> immediately 17:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> and put your property under safe & key 17:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> just b/c you don't like it, doesn't mean there isn't ANY logic to it 17:59 < aestetix_> it's not that I don't like it 17:59 < aestetix_> I didn't consent to it 17:59 < RangerZ|Laptop> also, do you want every cop to know your cell phone number if your car is stolen? 18:00 < RangerZ|Laptop> or to have it in a big DB? 18:00 < aestetix_> RangerZ|Laptop: the phone number is already on the police report 18:01 < RangerZ|Laptop> this is an information security issue, who/when has access/rights/responsabilities to call you 18:01 < RangerZ|Laptop> It isn't black/white 18:01 < RangerZ|Laptop> access controls, etc 18:01 < aestetix_> so the cop who finds it notifies the reports department, who notifies me 18:01 < aestetix_> not that hard 18:02 < RangerZ|Laptop> i agree, BUT thats a separate issue from just towing it (which your insurance probably covers), and THEN calling you, etc 18:02 < RangerZ|Laptop> honestly, its probably done that way b/c imagine how many pissed off people went ranting to the area their car was found at 18:02 < RangerZ|Laptop> etc 18:03 < RangerZ|Laptop> and how many days passed after they found it? 18:03 < aestetix_> how about this 18:03 < aestetix_> the police make one phone call to the car owner, give them X minutes to get there, if not, then you're SOL 18:04 < RangerZ|Laptop> b/c I agree, that they should have called you either immediately, or, the next morning 18:04 < RangerZ|Laptop> and told you that you can pick it up at the lot 18:04 < RangerZ|Laptop> free of charge 18:05 < RangerZ|Laptop> but if you think of a car as any other property, you don't tell the original owner where it is and give them 45min to come get their PS4 18:05 <@Corydon76-home> There are a lot of things the police can do without your consent, because they're law enforcement officers, not your personal assistants 18:05 < RangerZ|Laptop> etc 18:05 < aestetix_> RangerZ|Laptop: I don't think that's a fair comparison 18:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> I'm going from the point that the tow should be free 18:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> and that you should be called the next morning 18:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> (if found after 6pm) 18:06 < RangerZ|Laptop> but we've privatized all that non-sense 18:07 < RangerZ|Laptop> so your insurance rates are high, b/c the insurance company has to cover fees to private companies for doing what city employees should be doing on salary 18:08 < RangerZ|Laptop> again, how many days ago did they find your car? 18:08 < RangerZ|Laptop> more than 2? 18:08 <@Corydon76-home> You're paying for the tow no matter what, whether it's to the insurance company in terms of insurance premiums, to the city in the form of taxes, or directly to the tow operator. Guess which one will save you the most over the long term. 18:08 < RangerZ|Laptop> b/c I'll agree with you , thats not acceptable 18:09 <@Bahhumbug> tl;dr 18:09 <@Bahhumbug> Why was your car towed? 18:09 <@Bahhumbug> Just out of curiousity? 18:09 < RangerZ|Laptop> it was stolen 18:09 < RangerZ|Laptop> and the cops towed it when they found it 18:09 <@Bahhumbug> Oh. Sucks to be whomever. 18:09 < RangerZ|Laptop> aestetix_: 's car 18:09 <@Bahhumbug> Sucks to be aestetix_. 18:09 < RangerZ|Laptop> generally true ;) 18:11 < RangerZ|Laptop> so get this...
