I thought I added the word „enough“ before privacy, when I wrote this reply, but somehow it didn’t make it there. „Enough“ privacy I was meaning to say. I lived in Zimbabwe a country that is ruled by a government that is detaining and killing people for their speech and opposition. I know about the dangers of having no privacy, I put myself in that danger. My lived experience from Zimbabwe is that self-custodial LN, Liquid and non KYC Bitcoin exchanged P2P is good enough (with BOLT12 privacy on LN will be increased). Monero has higher privacy that’s true, but you won’t find anyone accepting it or exchanging it to cash on the ground. And activists need the cash to be able to do their work. View quoted note →

I didn’t know that there’s a dip right now and even more I don’t know why and I couldn’t care less…it’s great being away from „the daily news“. Preparing my „Sommerfrische“ meaning my place to work in the beautiful countryside during summer. View quoted note →

Left Telegram months ago. False marketing itself as encrypted, putting people’s communications far and wide out there for corporate and government surveillance now feeding all of it to xAI. 🤮 View quoted note →

Great! Bitcoin is money. View quoted note →

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is held in France, he’s not allowed to leave the country, the allegations are that Telegram enabled criminal activities on its platform. He seems to authentically support freedom of speech and want to protect privacy. That’s why I don’t understand why Telegram by default is NOT encrypted. The other important learning is: if you are running a censorship resistant platform then stay anonymous. That’s why protecting Satoshi Nakamoto‘s real identity is crucial.

@gladstein presenting the new AI for Human Rights Initiative…. Very important in the context of surveillance in authoritarian countries.

What a joy! View quoted note →

The surveillance industrial complex needs to be destroyed!🤮

U.S. Spy Agencies Are Getting a One-Stop Shop to Buy Your Most Sensitive Personal Data

The government wants to build a centralized platform where spy agencies can more easily buy private info about millions of people.

Happy #BitcoinPizzaDay! Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas 15 years ago - around 18 USD. We paid 0.00028591 BTC for two pizzas today - 31 USD. Hopefully soon we can pay directly with bitcoin at the pizzeria, meanwhile we purchased a voucher at @bitrefill with Lightning @Alby

KYC is the illicit activity. The attackers knew the hardware wallet the man was using and the exact amount of his funds. Don't use centralized exchanges. Earn bitcoin or get it peer to peer. Never share your seed phrase with anyone. Always verify a caller by contacting the company directly before sending funds.
