Probably many of you have already seen that video of Jacob Applebaum at the CCC:

I was not so much suprised by many NSA activities we heard about in that year, but that is really, really SHOCKING!

That changes for me also the view I had about Bitcoins security. The NSA can by 100% break the system if they want (they have 1000s of attack vectors). I was not so sure about that before.
So as we cannot fix all the technical weaknesses leading to this digital 1984 nightmare in what we are living, we certainly need to fight also on the political side.
I was thinking before technology could just make old school politics or power structures obsolete, but I am not so sure about that anymore. They have created with the NSA a monster in the worst sense of that word, and to beat them on the technological side seems to me naive (after I saw that video).
