There isn't even a short-term trend. We saw posts like this a few years ago (in the blog post even admits he tried this before) and they went nowhere, just like this "movement" will.


I mean, let’s divide it into before and after the Trump era. Will we see the same trend once the new sheriff in town steps down for peace?


Bold of you to assume that the new sheriff in town (or any successors) will ever step down.


From perspective outside of US it is not that relevant (in this context) if there is change after this. Because as we have seen in 2016 and now - there is no stability.


From a tech standpoint, nothing changed with Trump. The NSA had all the backdoors before Trump.


It's not just about backdoors; on a broader level, we're shifting toward a protectionist economic model, which contrasts sharply with globalism.
