Thanks for this. Wired was independent and stood for something then. I remember this issue vividly.

Man, I had every single issue for the first 10ish years. Gave them all away to the Toronto library in 2011.

Damn, imagine being in your 30's and being a Cypherpunk back then, you'd be looking at Bitcoin and nostr now as a 60+ y/o
