There are only three truly censorship resistant technologies at scale today: tor, bitcoin, and nostr.

All are currently niche…showing most of the world doesn’t actually care about censorship.

Granted, these technologies aren’t yet accessible or easy to use. But…they will be!

They are also censors. They can do it in their jurisdiction. Since they see this right in themselves, they find it right for others to do it. Most of the world? Yes of course. The world would be heaven if most of the world didn't have nightmares. It's not hell. Only those who wake up realize they ar...

BitTorrent seems like an obvious omission to me, but maybe I'm missing something.

I find a lot of people don’t see censorship as that big of an issue. They don’t like it, but won’t adopt new apps because of it.

Hey jack, are you still walking and fasting ?

Do you have any recs on business opportunities in making any of them more accessible/easy to use?

Also Monero but it's ok.

What are you doing to help with Nostr. I know what you've done for Bitcoin and wish you'd look into helping set up nonprofit education centers to teach lower income how it opens their world tbh

Censorship resistance is a byproduct of this croud-sourced defense of civil liberties. These technologies, built on strong encryption, efficiently secure many natural rights that are regularly eroded by public apathy to government corruption and incompetance.

Lmao sure bitcoin is censorship resistant as long as you aren't a person of interest or you jump through a thousand hoops. use xmr if you want censorship resistance.

Heads up for Bluesky. At the end of the day, it's a logic. https://nostr.build/i/9cd4de45da69e7893047b792266c1a2df671221c59888b7eeef04632af9dfa1a.jpg

The general public faces a paradox regarding open blockchains: 'I want to participate in transactions anonymously, but I don't want to deal with anonymous entities if the system turns against me.' Most people seem willing to trade their freedom for the peace of mind of knowing someone is in contro...

„…showing most of the world doesn’t actually care about censorship.“ They would care if they would realize.

Bitcoin miners can see and censor specific "blacklisted" transactions and start causing trouble way before even reaching a 51% attack. Monero miners cannot since that info is hidden. So it is even more censorship resistant in that regard.
