The Freedom Tech Stack
Full disclosure. I am not a technical person. I do my best and have learned a lot over the years and certainly spending so much time on SN has helped expose me to more technical discussions and technically inclined people than I was used to prior to joining SN.
I have been highly impressed with @siggy47's recent dive into the rabbit hole of more technical things especially around privacy/security etc. I know Siggy like myself didn't come from a technical background and isn't the youngest pup (turns out you can teach an old dog new tricks).
The arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov, is just the latest in a long list of recent events that has me concerned about our freedoms in a digital world. Other events that have given me pause:
- Arrest of Samurai founders
- Arrest of Tornado cash devs
- Censorship of X during Venezuelan elections
- Citizens being questioned and in some instances arrested for online posts during the recent UK protests/riots regarding immigration.
- EU "misinformation" law
- Canadian Truckers and some of the people who donated to their protest having bank accounts frozen
I am sure there are more but these come to top of mind and seem to be increasing in frequency.
So, Stackers I am reaching out to you today to try and cultivate the best possible freedom tech stack for myself (and hopefully others). Obviously, Bitcoin and Nostr and part of the puzzle, but what other pieces do we need to build the best possible personal Freedom Tech Stack.
Sats for all,
GR
