That's the point I implied! We absolutely should, and must. But the only viable way to do so seems to be by following Ghandi's principles of personal non-violent sabotage against the oppressor, which requires unity and cooperation between people, and that, alas, is very questionable these days. Half of us won't even admit they're oppressed! When a single shoemaker makes two left shoes instead of a normal pair the opressor orders, he's out to look for a new job. When every shoemaker out there makes only left shoes, the oppressor has to go f2k himself and learn some craft or manners.

Old ways that seemed to be working, like democratic elections? I don't think so. Not anymore.

I don't think one thing will solve it, but everyone who knows better can contribute in their own. For example by teaching people about privacy, encryption and free software. Writing books, doing podcasts aimed at the general public to promote privacy tech. Talking to your local government and municipalities, become the local expert and proposing policies.
