Big shoutout to the ~300 who came to the P2P Privacy Hacker Lounge in Buenos Aires on Saturday. Through talks, demos, a hacking zone, and a Logos Circle, we explored why privacy matters for freedom and the tech needed to protect it. Love to see a buzz around privacy again.

Read Farewell to Westphalia over the summer and loved it. It exposes the flaws of nation-states and makes a convincing case for network states. Highly Recommended!

the post nation-state era is here and @jarradhope_ and @ej_spode so elegantly and clearly capture it in this brilliant book out tomorrow. If you’d like a fresh, nuanced and optimistic view of what’s coming, make sure you get a copy. It’s the kind of book that will be remembered

The lower class is being engineered into serfdom. Let me explain like your life depends on it (because it does). For 50 years, wages have stagnated while productivity soared. Where did the surplus go? To capital holders. To asset owners. To those closest to the money
