"In this work, we propose Basis, a monetary framework in which both local trust-based currencies as well as global blockchain-based trust-minimized ones can coexist via smart contract powered reserves needed when there is no trust " https://t.co/ckTpx6HzDk
Proper "web3" should be about Mesh networks, private chats (such as DarkIRC), Nostr/IPFS based services, p2p currencies using blockchain as global settlements and reserves layer. What "crypto industry" is trying to offer instead is hard to understand even.
Your spending tells the story, even if your doctor doesn't.
The pharmacy subscriptions.
The specialist co-pays. The medical device purchases. The pattern of appointments that resolves, to any algorithm paying attention, to a condition you haven't disclosed.
Health data is supposed to be protected.
Financial data isn't.
But your financial data is your health data, for anyone with a blockchain explorer and the patience to look.
Insurance algorithms don't need your medical records.
They have your transaction history.
On a transparent chain, every medical decision you've ever made is a data point available to every institution whose pricing model benefits from knowing it.
DarkFi doesn't require you to disclose what you haven't chosen to disclose.
Your spending is not a medical record.
It shouldn't be readable as one.
let me make sure i’m understanding this correctly
the supreme court is refunding all tariff money back to corporations.
the same corporations that didn’t pay a single cent of those tariffs to begin with.
they passed every dollar directly to you through higher prices on everything you buy
you went to the store and paid more for groceries. you paid more for clothes. for car parts. for literally everything.
that money came out of YOUR pocket not theirs
and now the refund goes to THEM?
the corporations who used the tariffs as an excuse to raise prices even higher than the tariff itself and pocket the difference
the american people funded the tariffs.
the corporations profited off the tariffs.
and now the corporations get a refund on money they never spent in the first place
and nobody in washington thinks the people who actually paid should get the money back.
not a single person has even suggested it
guess we are never getting our DOGE checks either
this country does not work for you.
it works for them. it’s a joke
and they’re not even pretending anymore
If the government wants to read your emails, it should have to convince a judge first. That's what the Fourth Amendment requires. That's what my Fourth Amendment Restoration and Protection Act restores. No warrant, no search.
God’s heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father’s heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God’s heart is with the little ones and the humble, and with them He builds up His Kingdom of love and peace day by day. Wherever there is love and service, God is there. #ApostolicJourney #Algeria
Yet somehow it is controversial to not want to send free weapons to this country.
The baseline position should be an arms embargo and sanctions. This is pure barbarism.
JUST IN: Start9 announced an open source router.
Open source hardware. Open source firmware. Open source OS.
No tracking. No data collection. No hidden code.
🚨 Georgia House Governmental Affairs CENSORED my Dominion backdoor public testimony—10 seconds SLICED OUT mid-sentence!
That's the EXACT part exposing the truth they wanted hidden. Timestamps prove it. Everyone in the room heard it. ON RECORD.
So I recovered the full audio, watch and listen to what someone doesn't want to be ON NOTICE of.
WHO ORDERED THE CUT???
#ElectionIntegrity #WhoOrderedTheCut
Georgians, in fact ALL CITIZENS, make sure EVERYONE sees this post.
GrapheneOS will remain usable by anyone around the world without requiring personal information, identification or an account. GrapheneOS and our services will remain available internationally. If GrapheneOS devices can't be sold in a region due to their regulations, so be it.
Ring paid somewhere between $8 and $10 million for a 30-second Super Bowl spot to tell 120 million viewers that their cameras now scan neighborhoods using AI.
The math is wild. Ring has roughly 20 million devices in American homes. Search Party is enabled by default. The opt-out rate on default settings in consumer tech is historically around 5%. So approximately 19 million cameras are now running AI pattern matching on anything that moves past your front door. Today the target is dogs. The same infrastructure already handles “Familiar Faces,” which builds biometric profiles of every person your camera sees, whether they know about it or not.
Ring settled with the FTC for $5.8 million after employees had unrestricted access to customers’ bedroom and bathroom footage for years. They’re now partnered with Flock Safety, which routes footage to local law enforcement. ICE has accessed Flock data through local police departments acting as intermediaries. Senator Markey’s investigation found Ring’s privacy protections only apply to device owners. If you’re a neighbor, a delivery driver, a passerby, you have no rights and no recourse.
This tells you everything about Amazon’s actual product. The customer paid for the camera. The customer pays the electricity. The customer pays the $3.99/month subscription. And Amazon gets a surveillance grid that would cost tens of billions to build from scratch, with an AI layer activated by default, and a law enforcement pipeline already connected.
They wrapped all of that in a lost puppy commercial because that’s the only version of this story anyone would willingly opt into.
@BretWeinstein It exists already. The builders keep their head down and build, so people won't know about it until they need it. https://t.co/FIIPNVSfnZ

“Giving money to Israel for endless wars, billions and billions and billions of dollars. This doesn't make any sense. It's not rational that the country that we live in is seemingly in terminal, irreversible decline, and that nobody can do anything about it.”
—Tim Dillon
We cannot live in a world where governments collude to protect Jeffrey Epstein and to murder Charlie Kirk.
This doesn’t work.
We elect rulers who stay silent or choose to look the other way when children are being abused because of money or cowardice.
This no longer works.
I think, all the 19th century western ISMs do not make any sense at the moment. No any political philosophy assumed money being printed for free and distributed to gigascammers just for being granted
Adam Smith , Karl Marx etc assumed money are being appeared normally, so via resources extraction and acts of trade. You cant have "capitalism" when money are being created out of thin air and distributed to certain pockets. You may say those pockets enjoy "communism" but such definitions are quite grotesque. We just dont have proper language for what is going on even
Meanwhile, in Ergo ecosystem we have fully open-sourced (under permissionless license) DeFi infra (such as oracle pools) successfully maintained for 5+ years, with no any token issued . We are building long-lasting unstoppable financial infrastructure for everyone. WAGMI
YouTube deleted all my coverage of Israeli soldiers shooting civilians, including children targeted on a live stream, along with my entire account.
No community guidelines violated & 3 separate excuses given to me. Then Google deleted my email & won’t respond to appeals.
