Ask HN: NSA mass surveillance - What exit do you suggest?

1 points by northwest ↗ HN
It is obvious that we are all outraged by the recent revelations, and we will be even more outraged in the weeks or months to come.

But nothing substantial will be achieved by the feeling itself and by only expressing it over and over again. That's why it's time to understand that the discussion must now center on the next step in this process, meaning:

What are the possible scenarios on how to exit this situation properly?

What do you envision?

I'm curious about why a discussion about this question does not seem to be possible. Because everybody seems to be fairly exited about and interested in the revelations themselves.

- Is the above question not relevant to you?

- Is it not worth being discussed on HN?

- Is the entertainment value too low?

- Do you think there are no insights to be gained?

- Is this what you would call a "political post" and therefor to be ignored?

- Would you say that it's not your job to think about this question?

- Do you simply see no solutions?
