I think remote, air-gapped devices fix this, but it's not user friendly and somewhat tedious.

Here's a nostr remote signer: https://github.com/lnbits/remote-nostr-signer-configurator?tab=readme-ov-file

I also use a seed signer with Bull Bitcoin Wallet. Cold Card's work too if you don't use the edge software, but I like to play with all the geek math like miniscript.

That should mitigate much of this risk:

"According to O’Reilly, the issue extends beyond individual bugs and reflects a broader pattern. AI agents require extensive privileges to function, yet they are frequently deployed without adequate security hardening. Common misconfigurations, such as treating all connections from loopback addresses as trusted when used behind reverse proxies, can expose systems to the internet unintentionally. Even when authentication is enabled, concentrating credentials and conversation history in a single system creates an especially attractive target."

Signal is a little different, but I began researching White Noise and it's promising. I think they merged NIP-46 recently, but don't quote me on that just yet.

I love the first amendment, but the people who think putting a sticker on their Tesla and calling in sick for a day are missing the point of Civil Disobedience.

You can keep driving your Tesla and expect it to change Elon's mind.

You can't work for fiat and "fix the system" or whatever it is they think they are doing.

I would like to quote Ron Paul's childhood story about the value of a penny because the penny is no longer minted. How would I go about getting permission for this?

And for the record, I don't have perfect privacy. My stack is not 100% self-custody because I like to keep a buffer on an exchange to deal with the swings and pay my bills. I also find chaumian e cash interesting, but there's a big difference between keeping a small buffer on an exchange to buy stuff without a bank account and putting your whole life's savings in a BTC Treasury company.

Digital signatures... something something... trusted third party... something something.... double spending problem... something something.

I feel like some people will never learn.
