Today I learned that open source software can land you a jail sentence. I am in shock and sadness. And yes, pseudonymity is a way to protect yourself from the government mood-swings.

Oh, there's better examples than Hamilton, come on 😁 He actually should have been tarred and feathered - central banks... Pffft.

It’s weird as I was born BitcoinSandy decades ago and it’s just worked out great 🤙

How did I not know this about Orwell. This seems like a thing I would know.
