      By the way: my argument on why Podesta-like hack & mass dumps are harmful to a healthy democracy isn't about who did the hack—Russia or not.

      Surprising that US privacy-advocates are not alarmed at the harm the mass hack method does to ability to dissent. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/05/opinion/what-were-missing-while-we-obsess-over-john-podestas-email.html …pic.twitter.com/5g6A71hdIS

      Alternate take: regardless of your privilege, engaging in electoral politics now requires that you take opsec seriously.

      Not what I was implying. Dissent already has some good opsec. Phishing, 2FA are well understood in many activist circles.

      The only point I was making is that Podesta didn't have even those basics because his privilege taught him it wasn't necessary.

      I think it's more generational. They'll hire IT people. Phishing awareness and 2FA are good, but won't save activists.

      Mass hacks are like the early days of the internet; the old guard doesn't know what to do yet. Watch them adapt... with $$$.

      I agree that we'll see new and ugly ways of using maliciously obtained personal data. But the "obtaining" part isn't new.

      Account security/compromise is a somewhat mature arms race. I'm biased towards education/user safety because that's my day job.

      I hope you educate many people! But very difficult to protect activists; (expanding) networks as strong as weakest point.
