What do electronic shelf labels, cooler smart doors, and facial recognition technologies have in common? They’re the evolutionary progression of invasive technologies that will continue to erode consumer power and privacy.

A/o now I don’t intend to introduce any barriers to entry to this channel, as there aren’t enough cypherpunks on earth to warrant making it harder to join
If we start having problems with spam in the future I will leave open the possibility—but failing that, there are enough restrictions in the world already without me adding to them 🫡

Protecting free speech and privacy in cyberspace demands personal servers, not corporate cloud hosting
With a critical mass of dedicated users and builders, we can create an ecosystem (protocol + community + userbase) that makes self-hosting as easy as mainstream alternatives

cypherpunk values require personal servers
moxie marlinspike (read below) recognizes that digital sovereignty isn't possible when user data is hosted by corporate clouds
but his take—the mainstream take—is basically doomerism... "people do not want to run their own servers"
our hot take is that a critical mass of obsessed users + devoted builders will eventually yield an easy-to-use platform for self-hosting.

Yesterday I saw “Nobody Wants to Talk About Jacob Appelbaum”
In it, I learned how COINTELPRO was used to destroy a community of cypherpunks
You can’t unsee it

Genuine workplace convo today:
Them: What's your WhatsApp number so we can coordinate better on this project?
Me: You can reach me over Teams (corporate's choice, not mine). I try not to use WhatsApp or other Meta products for privacy reasons. I have a deep philosophical disagreement with their ad-driven, data-harvesting business model.
Them: Oh, I see. We can agree to disagree, then. I'm a capitalist and I like making money. Meta has been the best-performing stock in my portfolio this year.
