# BOOK LAUNCH!

# The Praxeology of Privacy

v0.1.0 Now Available

I'm excited to announce the publication of **"The Praxeology of Privacy: Economic Logic in Cypherpunk Implementation"** - a complete manuscript bridging Austrian economics with cypherpunk cryptography.

## What Is This Book?

This work proves that **privacy isn't just a preference—it's an economic necessity**. Through rigorous praxeological analysis, it demonstrates that privacy is logically required for rational economic action, property rights, and voluntary exchange.

### The Core Argument

I develop a **Three-Axiom Framework** showing how:

- **Privacy enables economic calculation** (building on Mises)

- **Privacy protects rational discourse** (extending Hoppe)

- **Privacy provides resistance tools** (following Voskuil)

The result? A systematic proof that surveillance systems create the same calculation problems as socialist planning, while cryptographic tools restore the conditions necessary for free markets.

## Why This Matters

For too long, privacy advocates have relied on moral arguments while economists have ignored cryptographic innovation. This book bridges that gap, showing that:

- **Cypherpunks** gain rigorous economic foundations for their tools

- **Austrian economists** discover how cryptography solves fundamental problems

- **Everyone** learns why privacy is essential for human flourishing

## What's Inside

~70,000 words across 21 chapters covering:

- Economic logic of digital signatures and zero-knowledge proofs

- How surveillance destroys market discovery processes

- Cryptographic property rights and enforcement mechanisms

- Practical framework for building parallel economies

- Original theoretical contributions to both traditions

## Download Now

**Complete manuscript available in multiple formats:**

- Light/Dark PDFs for reading

- Summary collection for overview

- Text-to-speech optimized version

- Individual chapters + full archive

## The Best Part

This work is **100% public domain**. Copy it, share it, sell it, modify it—whatever helps spread these ideas.

## Next Steps

- **Researchers**: I welcome feedback, critique, and collaboration

- **Educators**: Use this material in courses and discussions

- **Practitioners**: Apply the framework to evaluate privacy technologies

- **Publishers**: Contact me about formal publication opportunities

I would love to get some serious review before we print the first batch, so please reach out with critique and improvement proposals.

This represents a couple years of research connecting two intellectual traditions that desperately needed each other. I believe it's the first systematic praxeological analysis of cryptography—and hopefully not the last.

**What do you think? Does this framework resonate with your understanding of privacy and economics? Do I make any logical flaws?**

Guess what I am reading and I'll zap you 5,000 sats

Who sells products for sats?

I will be putting together a blog post and would like to link Nostr sellers.

Who else needs to be put on my list?

😆 🤣 good luck thats forbidden literature sir.

For me, for this, yes.

For this book I would specifically want to buy it in Bitcoin, and I would consider you vs Amazon for either that reason or as a last resort just to support a fellow Nostr user or Bitcoiner, but preferably with Bitcoin.

No Bitcoin payment option?

Who will sell me a physical copy of Lowery's Softwar for cheaper than Amazon's $50?

Is this site real? It says it isn’t associated with Jason Lowery in any way.

Where’d you find a copy? Is it for sale again?
