I am so confused, the Treasury Department removes the sanctions against Tornado Cash which is fucking awesome, but they do this three days after they expand financial surveillance on cash transactions, lowering threshold for reporting from 10,000 to 200 in thirty zip codes.

I wish they included the zip codes in the article
That sounds like an untouched market. Bottle that stuff brother!
Hahaha
listen, Im real hard on clothes, sir. I need reinforcement everywhere.
You are very welcome.
Look for bawls at the nodes and kill it ASAP if you arent wanting seeds.

Little ragamuffin says "aww look at that little kit-ten"
Dont @ me. I warned every ready it was a stupid hot take!
Ok, heres my hot take, ready? Cuz its stupid.
The wef puts more or less sound minded people in these positions so that when the technotyranny kicks off, the wef can step up and say
"hey guys, ze bugs and ze pods seem much better zan ai madness yes? Make me king of ze world now."
"(Also we have been funding ze ai to make you capitulate to daddy klaus)"
Some jerk podcaster I listen to said this almost verbatim last year.
Nah. You are running a small business. There's no algo to get your stuff in front of peoples faces. If you dont note at the right time of day, half your market base might never see your content in their feed.
Kazaa.. I forgot about that one. I used limewire and then frostwire a lot
Crypto-Anarchy 101: (as Pictures)
Get one easy to understand Picture for each protocol:
Signal
Signal is on the CIA contractor Amazon, and tries to use “sealed sender” to hide the metadata. However it’s flawed.

~~
XMPP
XMPP is well-trusted, but the OMEMO encryption dies with the domain it’s linked to. This means XMPP is nothing more than end-to-end encrypted email (with rotating keys).
Learn about XMPP here: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/xmpp/
~~
SimpleX
SimpleX splits up messages into a give and take. It’s similar to a double-federated model.
SimpleX users can change the relays mid-conversation, but new incoming messages are tied to government domains that can be censored.
~~
Session
Session transcends physical locations through unique DNS, onion-routing, and data stored in a BitTorrent database.
We use Session for an uncensored email list: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/uncensored/index.html
~~
Arweave
Arweave is to websites, what Session is to messages. Both have nodes being paid in a crypto to host a BitTorrent database. The main difference is Arweave stores the data DIRECTLY ON the blockchain.. and potentially forever.
Learn about Arweave here: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/arweave/Arweave-QA/index.html
~~
Nostr
Nostr has no blockchain. Users cryptographically sign messages, and then directly post and receive from relays.
Learn about Nostr here: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/nostrtutorial
~~
Bastyon
Bastyon is the “Russian Nostr” because it’s good at penetrating Firewalls. Unlike Nostr, Bastyon has a blockchain, and home client computers can directly and easily act as nodes (which makes it tough for governments to block).
Learn about Bastyon here: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/bastyon-works/how.html
~~
Bitcoin Lightning
Lightning Channels are like an Abacus, keeping track of who owes who on the Layer 1. It does multiple hops for privacy, similar to Tor.
~~
Monero
Monero hides the data by having fake “decoy” signers. Then having the reciever download and scan all the transactions for a match.

The NSA Taps the Ocean Cables
Simplified Privacy
Our VPN allows for split traffic with fake decoy outputs, (like the “Monero of VPNs”). So your home ISP and the ocean cables see different packet sizes.
Proof of Concept Beta
The VPN currently supports split-traffic, but the cover traffic is manual. For example, opening a 2nd profile with a 12-hour music list, which is very easy with a bookmark homepage. One advantage of manual, is the server doesn’t know if it’s cover traffic or not. But we will be automating the cover traffic in future beta rounds.

What does xmpp's omemo "dies with the domain its linked to" mean?
There's an old school pizza inn in dfw somewhere. Galaga and Mrs pacman on a tabletop. Its pretty cool, I think theyre going to try to bring back the jukebox in the next year.
