What was the last major belief you took a 180 on? What caused you to change your mind? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Determinism is interesting, there are many different interpretations and discussions of it. But I avoid choosing any side because there are arguments for and against it. Maybe you like the buddhist interpretation of it, your views sound similar to it, like anatta and karma

just checked this talk and holy shit, this is exactly how I imagined these kinds of meetings, just a bunch of guys that agree on everything they say and probably feel so smart about it

I watched Citizenfour last weekend (lemmy.world)
 

This was an incredible documentary. I was too young to grasp the whole Snowden thing when it happened so this was a great recap. But I have a question. This all happened, but what was the aftermath of these leaks? It seems people today have completely forgotten about this or don't really care, so that domain kind of failed. And were there any consequences for the NSA, any legislative intervention, anything at all, or was it just <insert "we're sorry" south park meme>. Do we have to assume nothing changed and the surveillance is still in place or probably even worse?
