Now is a pivotal moment—Julian is just one of the people whose life hangs in the balance for having the integrity to fight the arrogation of power from the people to the elite—by writing and publishing open source software that nullifies and dissipates that power by rendering toothless the threats that enforce the keeping of its secrets

The cypherpunks’ earliest victory established the fact that code written and published for this purpose is the kind of political speech that the US Constitution’s First Amendment was created to defend as a sacred value

That original victory now hangs in the balance vis-à-vis the actions of the unconstitutional US Imperial Megastate and her co-conspiring vassal States that have risen to power in the intervening years—putting the right to publish liberatory open source code squarely back in the crosshairs of “whole of government” aggression

The video below was made by Roman Storm—whose persecution is the result of the same inchoate SCAD—striking at the heart of the OG cypherpunks’ foundational victory by attempting to sanction deployed code as if it were a person OFAC can blacklist

Watch and read the below and spread the word

We have a choice—and our actions (or inaction) are how we must make it

If you never give up, the possible worlds you can create are infinite.

Merry Christmas to you—obstinate idealists, resolute dreamers, never-say-die BUIDLers.

2024 is the year you make it happen.

Building on decentralized infrastructure protocols is the modus of the web3 movement

Because the natural human right to freedom of speech would be forever secured if the medium itself precluded the possibility of censorship

The web3 project is to nullify the authority to do so

Hey @elonmusk are you guys blocking IPFS links intentionally?

If so, can we get that ability back please?

Unable to post, reply or even DM IPFS links—hoping this isn’t an actively-hostile-to-decentralized-storage policy 🤞

Weird how the powerful elite today promoting mass censorship and surveillance are so aptly characterized by JFK’s description of the threat of communism at the height of the Cold War.

Read the following if you don’t believe me—imo it’s impossible not to see a resemblance:

“…we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.
its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.”

How did we get here? And how do we cure this sickness at the heart of what used to be a beacon of liberty in the darkness—before its darkness snuffs out the last of liberty’s light?

@POTUS Offsetting capital gains with capital losses is not a “loophole” exploited by “tax cheats and crypto traders”—it’s the only thing that makes capital gains taxes fair 🤨

Without it—the cost of taking any risks at all (and thus seeking any opportunity) will be made impossibly high

The summary that @zherbert asked for.

[CS Bastiat ⚖️ @CSBastiat]

Yes. Everyone needs to be paying attention to the Tornado OFAC case. Could have massive implications for all of crypto. Even Bitcoin. It’s a battle over a narrative. We need to own it.
