Encryption. For the poors, that is.

Civillian use of Drones.
I'm very certain there's gonna be a 9/11-like terrorist attack involving drones and then governments all around the world are gonna get extremely paranoid and just ban it unless you get a special permit that only big corporations can get.
I'm honestly surprised we haven't seen an assassination by drone from a nonstate actor yet. It's cheap, would subvert many of the protections aimed at stopping shooters, and security likely wouldn't react in time or have the equipment to effectively stop it.

There was the 2018 Caracas drone attack. Though that one is somewhat muddy in whether it actually was an assassination attempt or a false-flag attack done by the government itself.
Dissent against the government.
Already illegal here in the uk to protest climate change.
Or to protest against genocide
Private ownership.
Why would you even want this, when you can book it as a service without all the hassles and this highly criminal "privacy". What are you? A drug dealer? A pedophile? Both?
Leaving your house without your papers and government issued ID.
I don't usually like SovCits, but like maybe we should really start popularizing SovCit movements. 🤔
I always had some sympathy with them. It just seems like they want off this awful capitalistic treadmill we find ourselves on. Everyone always laughs and belittles them, but I'm always rooting for em just a lil bit
If they went and lived in some remote mountain village or something I wouldn't mind.
But they claim all of this while driving without a licence or insurance. Would you be as sympathetic to their cause if they hit your car and cause serious damage?
I sort of understand their point but they've also been unimaginably selfish and entitled and that's the part I can't get behind. Also every single one of them is, without fail, an utter moron.
SovCits are not noble campaigners fighting against injustice. They are idiots deluded enough to think they've found the cheat code to the legal system by spouting the right string of nonsense.
Unlocking your bootloader
Emulators. There's a crack down that continues to happen as old systems become streaming services.
In the US: Not wholly illegal but I predict erosion of the 4th amendment under the guise of keeping the country safe. I predict the definition of a "reasonable" search and seizure will expand.
Across the world: as someone else mentioned, encryption is going to start getting a lot more attention as well.
I also predict erosion of 2nd Amendment for non-whites
Driving your own car.
But not in a good way. You’re expected to just die.
Disagree on the last part. They want to erode ownership. Driving will be a subscription of some sort.
Dumping junk in space
If right-wing nutjobs keep running the government I am going to say "birth control" and "sodomy" are on the chopping block. Hopefully by 50 years this won't still be the issue but its what they want now. Just to note that the old "sodomy" laws made everything that wasn't PIV illegal. So if you like oral sex that will be illegal now. Sorry everyone no more fun
Living in an "unchristian" way in any form, be it being an atheist, LGBTQ+, etc.
fingers crossed for child marriage becoming illegal (and in less than 50 years. the sooner the better)
Being trans, wait you said 50 years not 0.5? Haha lol we're so fucked
Don't be silly. The concept of being trans is a relatively new thing, by historical timelines. Fuck me, older black grandparents lived "Whites only" signs. I've seen them.
F@g bashing was a legit sport when I was a teen. Jump dudes coming out of gay bars? Boys will be boys! And no one objected. What are you, a f@g?
Two steps forwards, one step back. Rinse and repeat.
And we ALL have to fight. Men had to fight to the death for labor rights, now they got a holiday, though we've forgotten what it was about.
Fighting might mean your personal extinction. Pick a fucking side, pick up a rifle, be there when you're needed and train. I train.
That pic of me is not a fucking uniform. It's not a "cool guy" pose. (But you gotta admit, it's a great pic!) It's actually ME, working to learn clothing and weather and arms and tool belts and ammo and whatever fucking works in the field. I strap on my AR and pistol, run and jump and sweat and shoot while shaking like a fucking leaf. It takes hard work and sweat. If anyone is on the fence about getting armed and trained, best time to plant a tree is now.
Gonna let the red hats have a monopoly on violence? Nah. Not me. As for me and my house, we serve John Browning (Gun nerd joke, apologies. TWO WORLD WARS!)
I should note; Had hell finding a pic of "liberal armed protestors". Pic I found, meh, those guys aren't looking too "practical", let alone "tactical". Didn't used to be hard to find such pics. Huh. Make of that what you will.
Final note if one wants to get strapped: PRACTICE IN ALL CONDITIONS. The slightest discomfort gets magnified 10x over a very short period of time when the going gets rough.
(Sorry OP, just venting.)
I would hope being rich, but I'm not counting on it.
Being queer 🫠
Republicans want to redefine transgenderism as "gender identity fraud". RFK wants to send neurodivergent people to labor camps. You do the math.
Positive: ecocide universally accepted as criminal and backed up with meaningfully disincentivising penalties
Negative: being remotely off grid in any way. Probably a symptom of me being British, but I fully expect there to be a point where we're required to be constantly tracked (location, what you consume, what you see, etc) in real time and it'll become a crime to evade it.
Modifying most things (cars, android ROMs, PCs, etc.) It is right now to an extent but it will probably get worse.
