  That's good to hear.
  
  The only thing they'll get is a massive movement out of the country, both from people and technologies.

  This is why we have everything in place to change the country Pjuu is hosted in at the drop of a hat. It's currently not in the UK due the mass-surveillance being carried out here.

  Your right they can't destroy it. They can block it though as there is a pattern in crypto data. They can store it in the hopes one day it will be broken (forward secrecy is required). Pjuu should have more than enough things in place like public key pinning to make it nearly impossible to break traffic between end users and the service here. Like you said privacy is the big thing. If they can get on your computer or ours they have free reign. Being government its easier to do that.

  Crypto won't get destroyed. The more they try, the more people reinforce it. The problem is elsewhere, and i'd prefer a government stupidly trying to destroy crypto than France, for exemple, going for massive surveillance.
  They can't destroy crypto, but they can destroy privacy. And no privacy means no use for crypto. That's what worries me.

  I agree. I don't think they know how it works. The problem is; with a whole government backing these are the things that slowly destroy crypto. With quantum computers on there way, only time will tell how secure the world is going to be.

  Well, they can't do that. It's like trying to ban darknets, they can try but can't do anything about it.
