Participating nations
gollark: Except they can then... see everything you're doing, which defeats the point.
gollark: I don't think that's actually true unless you can go to ridiculous lengths like "run entire universe simulation backwards", in any case.
gollark: I mean... maybe, but it's more about making it very difficult.
gollark: I mean, how do people manage to mess this stuff up? I hesitate to say that I could do better about presumably very complex things, but it seems like a lot of the time the phone network is terrible and even I could do better at designing it.
gollark: Apparently there's yet *another* issue with phone network stuff (https://www.rtl-sdr.com/eavesdropping-on-lte-calls-with-a-usrp-software-defined-radio/) because apparently the designers/implementors are... idiots, so far as I can tell?
