npub1ynlz3qpjg3zsmskuy80hmy6vgv5kht4kugld9mvd36fxuy8kgm9qf9873s (npub1ynl…873s) Even if everyone's a good guy, we still have to trust that they know how to maintain data safely, that they won't build a system which stores spy-level access codes in plain text, or copy them onto a USB stick then leave it on a train.
Governments are the last people in the world I would trust to keep data secure. Not because they're bad actors necessarily, but because they're incompetent. Their IT projects fail routinely because they don't understand what constitutes success.
