Yikes. 2025 tried to normalize facial scans. 2026 looks ready to double down, pushing even further until we hit a breaking point (and yeah… anal scans, right nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s). All the more reason we need to keep building freedom technology harder than ever.

Reduce scans they say... Guess I'll be generating a lot of faces with nano Banana 🍌
I'm living in this country, and it's fucking terrible. Especially in Korea, there's a personal identification ID for everyone, and real-name verification is mandatory for virtually all financial systems. Since this is mostly done through phone, avoiding it is nearly impossible.
I'm only fortunate because I've already moved all my assets into Bitcoin and physical gold/silver, but my monthly salary still comes in fiat currency... I really need to figure out a way to quickly switch to earning Bitcoin as income, but I can't find a feasible solution yet. Alternatively, I should make as much money as I need to live on as fast as possible and flee to a country with a lower cost of living. Honestly, the whole situation here is just utterly fucked.
Is there freedom technology in hardware as well? One that potentially could replace mobile phones with SIM cards?
Not really anything good to be honest. We need true disruption here.
And governments, in all their power, are supposed to be like, oh well, those nerds have "freedom tech" now, they win, shucks, we gave it our best but they out-coded us!
Generating plausible AI faces will become more profitable than selling clean piss.
Since Aussie kids are skirting SM blocks, I reckon active periodic facial scans will be down the track for accessing them before long.
TSA - facial scans still optional 2025
