My favorite Kim Dotcom moment was when he said, and I quote:
The best way to communicate privately is inside of video games. Gaming software is still largely untouched by spy agencies and almost every game has their own player chat implementation. Now you know why I play a lot of video games 😎
The saddest part is I don't think he's half wrong, either. When everyone says use method X because it's secure, scrutiny goes that way. What kind of politician is sending sensitives messages in world of warcraft guild chats? That said, this is awful advice.
I 100% agree and I find this area of 'spycraft' an interesting topic. Its true that video game chats are a decent way to communicate while hiding in plain site, though this method is not secure by any means; more security through obscurity. Its funny you reference World of Warcraft, as spy agencies compromised wow's chat service over a decade ago . So you're correct, Kim isn't half wrong in that agencies aren't looking at EVERY game, though he's full of shit when he says "now you know why I play a lot of video games." He just wants to come off as being a bad ass OpErAtOr because he's a manchild with CoD brain.
