Mass surveillance has been on the rise and Edward Snowden believes that the only way to curb it is to take a strong stand against it by protecting your safety using encryption methods. The clicking-through actions don’t work. It breaks the user experience.
In cryptography, encryption is the process of encoding a message or information in such a way that only authorized parties can access it. Encryption does not itself prevent interference, but denies the intelligible content to a would-be interceptor. In an encryption scheme, the intended information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm a cipher generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. It is in principle possible to decrypt the message without possessing the key, but, for a well-designed encryption scheme, considerable computational resources and skills are required. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients but not to unauthorized users.
Touching on the topic of fake news that went viral on Google, Facebook and the likes, Snowden mentioned that asking the social networks to police items is just going to curb free speech. Instead, the concerned person should be able to dis such news items personally on social media discrediting the sites running them directly. Snowden also pointed out that not only the United States but United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Canada have been spying on their citizens using webcams on their personal computers.
"It is not censorship, but critical thinking, that will make it possible to fight against misinformation"
~ Edward Snowden
Censorship according to the Steem White Paper :
Steem is a decentralized network that is operated by witnesses in jurisdictions around the world. All user
actions are publicly recorded on the blockchain, and can be publicly verified. This means that there is no
single entity that can censor content that is valued by STEEM holders. Individual websites such as steemit.com may censor content on their particular site, but content published on the blockchain is inherently broadcast traffic and mirrors all around the world may continue to make it available.
Freedom of speech is the foundation of all other liberties and any infringement upon freedom of speech undermines the only peaceful means of reaching consensus: discussion. Without free discussion voters cannot be fully informed, and uninformed voters are a greater threat to society than losing the right to vote. Censorship is a means of stealing votes through limiting public discourse. Steem is committed to enabling free speech and building a free society.
That's what brought me to Steemit with other points that stand out from other social networks. I still do not explain, how two of my posts disappeared last week... A "matrix bug " lolll

Music : Murder The Mainstream by Steve Grant
LYRICS:
I can guarantee you that when i die there aint guna be a clone
im the only real one when im in the zone
i know they wana catch me when im all alone and im cool with that im used to having to hold my own
yea the skills and the rhymes and the raps are built for combat
im here to take the children's minds back
from the television and the villainous mind traps
and the criminals in the military complex
yea cuz that T.V. got a mouth on it
so watch ya kids when they get hit from the sound from it
and the internet when they playing around on it
the technology is how they are surrounding us
cybernetic tentacles metal flesh metallic tendrils
subliminal sexual messages sent through your mentals
experimental test tubes and genetic vessels
yea they lookin down upon us from vimanas
they want us traumatized from the drama
we not goin stop we ride like marauders
its hard to find us we camouflaged in a collage of mirages
robotic armored guards have come to bomb us
this goes beyond Anonymous and as large as God is
we've got piranhas in our waters look at the corporate folk they slide a bill under your nose without snortin coke you think your ship wont sink because you float your votes? well bye bye mother fucker row row your boat uh yea now will you listen?these psychopaths want us to bow when they sittin im loud when im spittin my mouth is a weapon so when i bust rounds duck down when im rippin
I aint a killa
but I Murder the Mainstream
Murder the Mainstream
The second they step in we reppin the second amendment
the weapons are kept for defensive protection
they sent in these devils these federal henchmen are gettin aggressive
they just want to stress us so that when we flip out they can come and get us
and they make us get down
so they put on pressure and they wana test and measure our threshold
they dont want us to get loud
its another risk now
but we've learned to chance it the shit is too real so fuck the circumstances
mother fuckers wana come and murk ya family
you give a dam til your blood is squirt on canvas
dont trust the news for answers
your loved ones gettin crushed and hurt and damaged
mother fuckers still jump in front of cameras
bust ya guts ketchup mustard murder sandwich
cause if you white you a problem and if you black you a target
and if you rap your a monster
and if you speaking the facts mother fuckers come catch you, you a martyr
in this game of chess see there's rules
look at the board see the chess pieces move?
before they figure out what chess piece they use
you gotta figure out what chess piece are you
so don't be fooled
by the mind control from zionists generated by these cartels
they don't want to separate us
they just want to manipulate us into separating ourselves
its a dark spell and it cant be unspoken it must be broken
all this gun control and all these puppet shows
man i aint trustin no one better duck he comes another explosion
I aint a killa
but I Murder the Mainstream
Murder the Mainstream
Now this may be irrelevant to you
but even the most intelligent of jews
will address the elephant that's in the room
cause how much can the pelican consume?
see a jew isn't a zionist but a zionist can be a jew
ya see they like fuse the ideas of the two to confuse
you and the minds of the jews so that they fight for these ghouls
you should know by now im talkin bout the rothchild-ers
and they using isreal as a rottweiler
these killas are cold man like some crocodile blood
they don't really give a dam or a fuck about us
look at the Gaza strip they poppin clips taken shots at kids droppin bombs
and shit on a populace with rocks and sticks they locked in a grid lookin like a nazi pit
from al-qaeda to isis who you thinks creating em, training em and paying em
you better check the nation that you stationed in to see
who is making favors to see who donates to them
its a big game aint matter fact its a big shame aint it
its a situation they dont wana have to play with
even when a kid is getting decapitated
peace to Syria the middle east American blood bath has reached hysteria
we've breached the barrier we must act
while the freedom of speech is still here in us
and the media just keeps burying the facts
over and over agin we seen it before and we've heard its the same thing
Thats why i say :
FUCK THE SYSTEM and lets Murder the Mainstream!
