Big tech, government and very sensitive data from citizens. Expect more data to be added.

I wonder what kind of "insights" they're looking for. Imagine if they're going to connect your social media content to see if you're a person that is more likely is going to comply or not.

This is really interesting and scary.

This will change and is changing as banks and payment service providers are aggressively monitoring all transactions with consequences for customers like frozen bank accounts until you've proven yourself not guilty.

Also a CBDC a year after introduction will probably misuse their absolute control. This will really push people in the direction of using lightning, cashu, fedimint and p2p bitcoin transactions.

Don't forget to also spend your bitcoin, if a merchant accepts it.

I like this exercise.

It shows that the inflation rate that is communicated to us is completely flawed and in my opinion doesn't even exist. Instead we should say 75℅ less purchasing power in food compared to last year. Or use energy, housing, by not one inflation rate.

Truly beautiful! It looks so much like a real photo.

Same here unfortunately.

Then they should also abolish cash. It's very anonymous.

Dystopian EU incoming. Meaning you like something, say something, comment in something they don't like and you could be thrown in jail.

They're trying it over and over again to build backdoors in encryption.

I can imagine that some companies just comply or they'll leave the EU, as many more will do in an exodus.

Yes, all developers should go anonymous. Imagine creating a nostr marketplace that takes off in popularity and use and the developers are known. Then you got another Silk Road.

That's a very interesting take. It's probably not broken for the bankers, those with power and lots of wealth, but probably is for everyone else.

That is fantastic feel good news to start the day with :-)

This reminds me of the African 419 scammers that were also being scammed by creating weird photos of themselves line a shoe or fish on their head because this was the religion of the person they thought they were scamming.

I would like to see the list of vulnerable applications.

Never agree on privacy policies.

That is insane!

The next software engineer that builds a marketplace on Nostr probably better be doing it anonymously.

As for yourself, your kids indeed and also your dog.
