Last week FBI Director James Comey at the Boston College conference on cybersecurity stated:
While that quote in the article is taken out of context, it is even more disturbing when taken in context. The included video puts the quote in context where Comey is arguing against widespread access to strong encryption with the public. There are other quotes included as well that are just as disturbing, such as:
Even our communications with our spouses, with our clergy members, with our attorneys are not absolutely private in America... ...In appropriate circumstances, a judge can compel any one of us to testify in court about those very private communications.
Is this the "adult conversation" on encryption he was getting ready for last year?

As someone who wouldn't be sent to one of those...screw you. A person's worth is not measured solely by their intelligence, and IQ is a crap proxy for someone's intelligence as it is. It measures a specific subset of verbal and mathematical reasoning, mostly in an English-speaking and Westernized milieu. Intelligence has many more facets. If you're serious about this, well, you're just another example of why INT and WIS are two different stats.

well it's a better value than most of the arbitrary things people are murdered over it would make the world tangibly better, it would get rid of pretty much all elected officials all of the plutocrats and most people that support fascism.
no kkk no fascist usa, the only way to achieve this is to eliminate all of the people that collaborate with the fascists, the dutch did it after wwII but the stupid people in the US hired the SS because scarey socialists, the result is what we have now violent police state
as someone that should be eliminated you should think that your sacrifice will make things better for those that remain, that would make you a not sociopath but the reality is you are a sociopath and have no value as a human

If those charts correlating IQ with GRE scores are correct mine is 145, so in your scheme I'd escape your little death camps. What you, with your presumably Promethean IQ, don't seem to have realized, is that by doing this you become precisely as bad as all those violent people you call stupid, and in many ways worse, because *you ought to goddamn know better, genius.*

If he's serious about this, he's probably not intelligent at all. He has neither wisdom nor intelligence, regardless of what his IQ (which is pseudoscience) may or may not be.
