High-Level Criminals Associate Privacy With Crime Because They Want Privacy Only for Themselves (Control But No Accountability)

Bill Gates advocates for stopping end-to-end encryption (to tackle 'misinformation')
The latest article, the latest modus operandi from the man who never even studied science (he studied law, dropped out, broke the law again... after he had already been arrested)



“Privacy protects us from abuses by those in power, even if we're doing nothing wrong at the time of surveillance.”

--Bruce Schneier



Summary: Tyrannical tendencies from the non-scientist who tries to paint himself as Mr. "science" (Jeffrey Epstein tried to do exactly the same thing, which is why he and Gates paid universities) are bare naked for everybody to see

AS we noted more than six years ago, Microsoft and Bill Gates support illegal surveillance by the NSA and are leading facilitators of this illegal and unconstitutional surveillance. It's all a matter of public record, e.g.:



Bill Gates Says Snowden Is No Hero



Of course, as usual, this would be rationalised by superimposing major criminals onto subjects of spying, e.g.

Bill Gates backs FBI in battle with Apple over San Bernardino...



We're intentionally leaving out links here; some of the above are Bill Gates-funded publications that treat Gates as some sort of genius who knows best on every single facet/topic. He pays them to perpetuate this idea; never mind if he never even finished university (in any discipline). It gives him more power/influence when the media presents him as a guru in all things... as if wealth alone implies cleverness.

We recently wrote about anonymous cash payments -- something Gates opposes (in India he already experiments in turning Microsoft and technology companies into banks; he comes from a major banking family, so he looks at it as a form of control/domination over people). COVID-19 is being internationally exploited to drive this agenda, treating people who don't perpetually carry around so-called 'phones' and cards (now with 'contactless' chips on them) like 'dirty' lepers or something.

Earlier this month Richard Stallman reappeared in the media because of an interview regarding cryptocurrency. It's also 'cashless' (more of a buzzword nowadays). It's not necessarily helping privacy -- an issue that Stallman has long warned about. Stallman wasn't 'canceled' completely and we hope we'll make a comeback; as we noted this morning, he still inspires so many. He just doesn't control/command the media. A year ago (in August when Gates scandals in MIT became apparent, due to the Epstein links) I warned Stallman that the media would attempt to divert attention and cause attention to move elsewhere. He didn't take my word of caution seriously enough. Weeks later he was out of MIT and then the FSF too.

Going back to the person RMS was exploited to distract from, the context of the above quote is a new interview where Gates pretends privatisation and monopolisation are just "science" and everyone who opposes his for-profit ventures is a nutcase. Here it is:

Gates on child porn



We're highlighting the part about child porn.

Interesting how he mentioned it like that as if he's all against it because Mr. Epstein comes to mind. Never mind Mr. Jones (his engineer arrested for child porn) as he might argue he did not know about Jones. But he knew what Epstein had done. He knew. It was in the public record.

Now let's tackle the rest of this nonsense, starting with:

"Well, strangely, I’m involved in almost everything that anti-science is fighting."

That's what Microsoft has done; it held technology decades behind. Back doors (basically attack on maths) harmed public health and banking.

"I’m involved with climate change, GMOs, and vaccines."

“I personally believe government should not allow those types of lies or fraud or child pornography [to be hidden with encryption...]”
      --Bill Gates (new interview)
That's intentionally mixing several different things. Climate is changing, vaccines are generally effective, and GMOs have many legitimate issues with them, both health-related (pesticides) and patent-related. As for vaccines, they need to be properly tested (not just on poor, dark-skinned people) and patents often mean that there are profiteers like Gates himself.

Then he says (similar to what he told Chinese state media): "The irony is that it’s digital social media that allows this kind of titillating, oversimplistic explanation of, “OK, there’s just an evil person, and that explains all of this.”"

Of course Gates doesn't see himself as an evil person, just like Donald Trump thinks he's absolutely awesome. His reply above is something along the lines of, "I'm rich, therefore people hate me..." (never mind how I amassed this wealth and what I do).

Then there's this: "And when you have [posts] encrypted, there is no way to know what it is."

"...what we have here is a tyrant who never graduated from any college painting himself as pro-science when he's in fact pro-money (self-enrichment) and he's willing to ban private communication between people to stifle discussions about him."So? You want to spy on your critics. That's kind of authoritarian, don't you think? This is the kind of thing that causes people to loathe and distrust you.

"I personally believe government should not allow those types of lies or fraud or child pornography [to be hidden with encryption like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger]."

Notice how he's mixing together "child pornography" with "fraud" and "lies"; never mind if he has several child pornography-related scandals of his own.

The bottom line is, what we have here is a tyrant who never graduated from any college painting himself as pro-science when he's in fact pro-money (self-enrichment) and he's willing to ban private communication between people to stifle discussions about him. This is in fact why many people cannot tolerate him and Microsoft, which puts back doors even in full disk encryption [1, 2]. Gates has supported much worse than child pornography; he supported trafficking about 2,000 children per year for sex with people his age. Yes, he actively worked with Jeffrey Epstein to whiten his reputation after the arrest. Mr. "science" Gates... ⬆

Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates, and Nikolic
Days before his death Jeffrey Epstein "amended his will and named Mr. Nikolic [Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s science adviser, shown on the right] as a fallback executor," according to the report which published this photograph.
