The privacy violations keep getting ramped up. Ofcom's Online Safety Act was just another step. This is the latest new violation: Stamps in people's passports will be replaced by biometric checks for people travelling in and out of the EU from 12 October.

Stamps to be replaced with biometrics at EU border from 12 October

UK citizens will have to submit fingerprints and an image of their face to enter the EU.

Money is power. That's why the regime is so neurotic about KYC and taxes. You want some power back? Start shifting your income streams to the crypto circular market. - That is buy in crypto, sell in crypto, earn in crypto, shop for groceries in crypto. Monero by far is best for this, but you could do it with other coins if you were careful about your trace. The point is, break out of the fiat system. Just hodling BTC isn't breaking out of anything. Satoshi designed the coin for financial freedom, so use cryptos as such, or keep on being enslaved by the regime.

Bitcoin is too traceable, especially in the age of KYC. Monero is a superior currency.

There is nothing you can do on WhatsApp that you can't do on Signal. So why do the sheep keep sheeping, by using WhatsApp? And since they are so amenable, what can we do to make Signal their go-to?

BTC isn't even the best crypto technologically, it was just the first. If people move onto the next shiny thing, they'll take their money out of BTC to buy the other. Then what happens to the already inflated BTC price?

If you must run video traffic to your business, YouTube in the age of AI is out. Not only that, YouTube/Google/BigTech are all arms of the government now. They will give the government your details upon request. So for now, use platforms like Bitchute, Odysee, Rumble, as well as Nostr even Twitter is OK if you're not too controversial. But here's the thing: Do NOT put your face on video (people like Mental Outlaw are great, but they're vulnerable). Unless you are an active campaigner at mainstream level like Naomi Brockwell, you don't need to put your face on the internet. Even Watchman Privacy/Gabriel Custodiet has his real voice online, leaving him susceptible to voice ID - which is already a thing. Soolution? AI. Use AI voice changers and Deepfake face-changers. Mask yourself completely, because keeping your webcam off is no longer robust enough.

Gold is flying this year not because it's new like BTC, but because the fiat system is a giant fraud. Switch your fiat to gold, but know that it will have roughly the same purchasing power whatever the $ does. It is not a speculation. That said, silver and especially platinum are extremely undervalued right now.

The UK government is weildng far too much power across the world. Why should their Ofcom body be telling companies in the USA, etc what to do? And why the hell are those companies complying?

The "Sword of Kahless". I love it when blacksmiths let their inner nerd come out.

Any Monero bros and sisters out there?
