Woah, what's this about the breach of privacy needing to be extrajudicial? There was nothing about that originally. These are goalposts being moved. I refuse to continue this line of discussion if the discussion is happening in bad faith with moving goalposts.

Because we all agree that warrants do need to exist to catch bad guys...

I refuse to continue a discussion with someone who doesn't believe in the concept of a warrant.

Out of interest if this is your position, why does your profile list a protonmail account instead of something on US soil?

I can both believe in the concept of a warrant and wish to hide my identity from people like you.

A Gmail account would also do that. Feels more like "privacy for me, not for thee" to be honest.

The fact that you equate "privacy" with "warrants as a concept" is kind of sad, but I doubt you're capable of learning better, given your pretty terrible attitude thusfar.
