Another thing we have to accept is the world doesn't give a shit about personal responsibility, privacy and censorship.

People value safety over freedom, they aren't build like us. This is hard to see inside our echo chamber.

People are very governable.

Billions will not use Tor or download apk files and they sure as shit won't be buying raspberry pis and learn Linux to make payments.

They want to just download from app stores, click a few buttons and stuff just works.

They want to have a customer support line to contact if things go wrong.

They don't want to risk getting in trouble with governments.

And so we need to keep this in mind as we build.

I think the key is to develop products that don't require much of a compromise between convenience on the one hand, and privacy / censorship resistance / whatever on the other. Given the choice people will almost always choose convenience and comfort.
