We all have a little cypherpunk in us;
even those that are not really into tech. have a little cypher in them;
capabilities certainly enable but it is not the driver of a cypher life;
it's not unfounded that people gravitate and prefer #privacy:
blinds, doorlocks, whispers, close friendships that you share personal stories and thoughts;
these are glimpses of what cypher looks like in its non-digital form.
humans have an inherent need for multi-layered existence.
if people understood how deeply entrenched data sharing and how this influences and changes their behavior, then there would be a massive disconnect by people outraged at the swindle.
People will value other things in life, prompted by recognizing they've been manipulated by algorithms.
People may be obtuse about their technologies, but they are certainly anti-surveillance
