I did not accuse you of not reading an article.

The EFF position is eminently defendable which is why lots of people here are defending it.

We can have a difference of opinion on how to tackle global crime. And I'm not undermining your position I feel your position is a reasonable one, but removing my rationale, devaluing my rationale and attacking my ability to think is not helping your argument.

I see you updated your comment.

"The guy I responded flamed me over something that I never said, and you're all upmodding them and downvoting me because... I can speculate."

"But it's clear nobody here cares about the arguments. Nobody, not one, has addressed the issues I've raised. Insulted me, changed the subject, put words in my mouth, sure."

I have not flamed you, I have not insulted you, I have not misquoted you. As the person your responding to, I'm sorry you have found yourself in this position.

Honestly, rereading all the posts here, no-one has insulted you at all, everyone has been more-or-less civil, with no name calling, or ad hominim attacks.

If your going to be upset with me, please at least be upset with me for things I've actually done.
