Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless we all do, we're going to write it. We publish our code so that our fellow Cypherpunks may practice and play with it.

Our code is free for all to use, worldwide. We don't much care if you don't approve of the software we write. We know that software can't be destroyed and that a widely dispersed system can't be shut down.

"Since communications occur directly between nearby devices through a decentralized mesh network, the platform can be misused to evade lawful surveillance, facilitate anonymous coordination"

Karl Marx never talked about skills. For him, all labor is worth the same.

But you see, of the 11 players in a football team, there’s only one Messi. His productivity and value are way higher than others.

Socialism is for dummies.

Wer jetzt immer noch die Augen verschließt und nicht kapiert, dass es hier eiskalt um die totale Kontrolle und systematische Überwachung geht, dem ist beim besten Willen nicht mehr zu helfen!

[Dries Van Langenhove @DVanLangenhove]

If you believe this, you deserve what’s coming.

These people import millions of hostile invaders, made transitioning teenagers ‘a core European value’ and allow pedophiles free reign, but now they claim we need ID-verification for social media for our children’s sake. This is not about protecting children. It’s about control and censorship.

Le site est open source et sera amélioré en continu.

[Lord Bebo @MyLordBebo]

🇪🇺‼️🚨 EU - SURVEILLANCE PARADISE:

1) Cars sold in the EU will require a camera that scans the driver’s face to determine if they are distracted.

2) Chat Control is being pushed through. It would allow the EU to scan all private chat messages of citizens.

3) Age verification, which requires users to prove their age with a selfie and ID, is also about to be implemented.

No citizens voted for this, the elites are simply imposing it on the public.

→ Ironically, Ursula von der Leyen is famous for deleting her texts with Pfizer during a major vaccine procurement scandal…

As always, such regulations come with staggering hypocrisy.

Noticias recentes da UE 🇪🇺

- Chat control aprovado

- UE obriga carros novos a instalar câmera de scan facial

- UE exigirá verificação de ID para aceder à internet

Isto está a ficar pior que na Russia ou Bielorussia, parece a URSS moderna

Estão a criar uma zona comum totalitária e os partidos políticos todos, sem excepção, falam do mundial e continuam as suas vidas como se nada se estivesse a passar

Nunca vi nem povo tão brando e subserviente nem políticos tão inúteis

Acho que é isso que os caracteriza a todos os politicos, a inutilidade de discutir temas realmente preocupantes de violações de direitos fundamentais como a liberdade e privacidade

Cada vez mais a UE se torna em ditadura disfarçada de democracia

Cada vez mais próximos de não ter nada e ser feliz

when the samourai devs had their homes raided by heavily armed cops 2 years ago it sent a chill throughout the bitcoin industry

i felt it first hand, shit was scary and nobody knew what was about to come next

when the dust cleared a bit, arrested and funds seized, it was obvious they were going to need significant legal defense funds

made a few calls, but nobody wanted to stick their neck out, reasonable, i myself was hoping someone else would handle it, a young family of my own that i did not want to put at additional risk

but someone had to do it, so we launched the p2prights fund through @bitcoinpolicy, still proud of those guys to this day for taking that risk head on when nobody else would

in total, we raised about a million dollars worth of bitcoin, well short of what was needed to fight the case properly, mostly from individuals, honestly it was pretty disappointing, made me rethink a bunch of things

anyway, we still need to free samourai, lets get it done

🇬🇧 Andrew and Tristan Tate have lost a legal bid to be told the names of their UK accusers.

Prosecutors argued the names should stay hidden because they could be made public.

WTF!!!

By that logic, any famous person can be accused, dragged through court, and still not know who is actually accusing them.

How exactly are you supposed to defend yourself against a claim when the identity of the person is hidden from you?

The UK is getting more and more like Stalin’s Soviet Union with every passing day

never put yourself in a situation where you need bitcoin price to go up in the short term

thats how you get rekt

bitcoin accumulation is a long term game of survival

and nobody can do it for you

stack real bitcoin, not that fake shit

John Lennon wrote a beautiful song about socialism.

“Imagine no possessions” he told us.

He also:
– helped write his band’s anti-tax anthem, Taxman
– incorporated his IP holdings
– moved to a lower-tax country
– fiercely protected his royalties
- drove two Rolls Royce’s and had multiple luxury homes.
– made sure even the royalty cheques for Imagine were kept safe for his estate so his family would remain wealthy in perpetuity.

If he believed it, he’d have lived it. The trouble with socialism is that even the people who love the idea won’t run the experiment on themselves.

John Lennon writing Imagine while owning two Rolls Royce Phantoms and later having a law suit to protect his royalties tells you all you need to know about socialism in practice.

It doesn’t work outside of the imagination.

Bitcoiners, the reason we don't have more adoption and a higher price is because:

We weren't toxic enough.
