1/ a brief thread on privacy
me: i spend a lot of time and energy understanding my personal privacy and how to protect it
people on the internet:
“no one who is innocent needs privacy”
“what are you trying to hide?”
“are you a drug dealer?”

3/ i’m happy to see @BullyEsq has also taken on this topic
his new blog’s 🔥 first 🔥 post is about privacy, namely the fact that we have no financial privacy and that’s exactly what governments want with their digital fiat coins

4/ another person worth following is @mayazi who coined the term “dissident tech” (i think) and connects the dots on where crypto and conflict connect
5/ of course, @lopp who is CTO at @CasaHODL has published numerous guides on privacy, personal protection, and is now building tools to help individuals protect their bitcoin

6/ the real question though - do people care about privacy or profits?
the majority of crypto pundits talk a big game, but will choose to sacrifice privacy for personal profit every time
and privacy focused businesses haven’t yet found effective ways to monetize

7/ who pays for privacy preserving features?
if we believe privacy is a fundamental right, what steps can we take to preserve it?
i’m *thrilled* privacy is a growing topic of conversation
but how do we move from talk to action?
would love to hear you ideas 💡
