I moded my Cold Card Q to play a game I vibe coded.
"The Bitcoin Dungeon"
Collect the bitcoins and defeat the big banker boss at the end.
Don't throw your Cold Cards away guys, they still work to play some fun games.
Politicians in the UK thought that the Online Safety Act would immediately fetter our access to the open internet (and as a side benefit would let them gather vast amounts of information about us).
As virtually everyone in the UK immediately began using a VPN, both of these goals failed on day one, leaving those same politicians looking for other means to achieve their censorship and data gathering goals.
Unfortunately it looks as though the makers of the most commonly used phone handsets may be out to help them – instead of forcing websites to restrict access, why not get the hardware to do it instead?
In the UK, Apple is already requiring some iPhone users to verify their age at the OS level in order to access certain features, and it’s likely that Google and other manufacturers will follow suit.
If you don’t want to be part of this vast experiment in censorship and data gathering, what can you do?
The simplest answer is @GrapheneOS . It is a privacy-hardened operating system, that will not ask your name, address, or date of birth, and can be installed easily by anyone without special technical knowledge.
You can set up separate profiles on the phone (one for extra privacy, one with the Play store installed so you can run most Google apps, for example). Most apps will run fine – although be warned that some banking apps do struggle, so be aware that you may want to hang on to your old device as a ‘doxxed banking phone’….
Steps to follow:
1. Get a Google Pixel phone (check here for compatibility: https://t.co/XK3TcPH0GU
2. Visit this excellent guide to help you with the installation: https://t.co/lLWOVHNo1S
3. Follow the installation instructions here: https://t.co/i8wXKYs4ZS
4. Either use your own SIM, or if you prefer to be more private, get a KYC free global eSIM here: https://t.co/d6bSMopefX, and look into getting a KYC free phone number for calls here: https://t.co/5F1dewtSfR (NB I am a https://t.co/cmeTctjw4P user but I have not yet tested JMP, so please DYOR).
After about 35 minutes’ work, you should have a privacy hardened phone that will never ask your age, name or address, and on which you’ll be able to install and run whatever compatible software you choose, just as nature intended.
Whatever obstacles of censorship or invasion of privacy are thrown in our way, remember that there are tools to fight through them, and there are very many people in the world who will help you find the way.
Onwards.

An inspiration for Fedi and its ecosystem, The Cypherpunk Manifesto turns 33 years old today.
Here's @obi giving an overview of the Manifesto's impact at @bitcoinmenaconf last year.
"Bitcoin only exists because of the cypherpunks, not the other way around."
