freedom => the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants => information in itself doesn’t have this power!

property => a thing or things belonging to someone; possessions collectively

possessions => the state of having, owning, or controlling something

message => a verbal, written, or recorded communication sent to or left for a recipient who cannot be contacted directly

ergo, not everything has the characteristics of

intellectual property => intangible property that is the result of creativity, such as patents, copyrights, etc.

that is exchanged in a message.

should not collect them… as it violates my

privacy => a state in which one is not observed or disturbed by other people

Your claim is duly noted.

Not sure what do mean with "illegal way", content providers and ISPs have been teaming up to inspect internet packets since the technology is available in most developed countries. Obviously not everybody can in practice do it, it takes infrastructure and the right amount of money in the pockets of politicians.

What strong encryption provides is just secured communication channels and that's about it.

Let the general populace cannibalize themselves, that's their choice, but those who are actually alive need a way to communicate without prosecution.
