Computer security (also cybersecurity) is the study of designing computer systems so as to make them hard to "attack" (which usually means accessing "sensitive" information, manipulating it or destabilizing the system itself). At the dawn of computer era security wasn't such a big deal as society didn't depend on computers so much and damage one could cause by exploiting them was limited, however once consumer technology became forced by [capitalism](capitalism.md) and put into EVERYTHING -- companies, governments, streets, homes, clothes, even human bodies and things that can work better without such technology (see e.g. [Internet of stinks](iot.md)) -- privacy became another bullshit issue of society as cracking now theoretically allows not only killing individuals but wiping whole countries off the map. Recently security has become a lot concerned with ensuring digital "[privacy](privacy.md)".
**If you want security, the most basic thing to do is to disconnect from the [Internet](internet.md).**
**If you want security, the most basic thing to do is to disconnect from the [Internet](internet.md).** Just never use it. If you are really serious, you HAVE TO stop using widely used human languages such as [English](english.md), you simply have to **learn an obscure language** of some jungle tribe that no one else knows and use that exclusively for your encrypted messages (like they did with the [Navajo](navajo.md) language during WWII).
**Security is in its essence an unnecessary [bullshit](bullshit.md)**. It shouldn't exist, the need for more security comes from the fact we live in a [shitty dystopia](capitalism.md). In a [good society](less_retarded_society.md) there would be no need for security and people could spend their time by solving real problems. We, [LRS](lrs.md), advocate NOT for increasing security (which leads to things like police states, [censorship](censorship.md), [bloat](bloat.md) etc.), but for decreasing the need for it, i.e. steering society towards a better direction.

Remember, **secrets are always bad**, need for secrecy is an indicator something is wrong on a more fundamental level.
