    I mean, that’s hardly realistic for most people.

      I’ve persuaded a few. It took years and they all hate me now, but I did it.

  … where it’s not possible to communicate with someone digitally…

  I’d be thrilled to go back to that, if what we’re getting now instead is the only other option. But, I grew up in the before-times, so I’m not so put off by the idea.

    You’re still getting surveilled in real-life conversations … if anyone in the conversation is stupid enough to bring their phone or other ‘smart’ device (including any modern car).

      I don’t know why you’re being hostile. Options are good, I didn’t ever say that it would fit every scenario.

  better idea: communicate irl. and also we need proper end-to-end encrypted chats that exchange public keys from device to device directly (NFC or QR code) (which requires physical meeting).

    I don’t know a single person in real life that can maintain a conversation about this. And I keep looking.
