RE: UN Capturing Open Source Software?

in DevTalk2 months ago

I greatly appreciate your deeper look into the issue. As I am not a dev it is beyond my competence to provide the additional detail and clarity you have. It would be a stretch for me to assemble a Reticulum compatible RNode, and that same character flaw left me utterly unaware of the decentralized alternatives to Github and Gitlab, which I reckon is similarly of critical importance to open source.

The point about tornado cash is particularly poignant, as the prosecution of the TC dev as an unregistered 'money transmitter' is completely spurious, as TC never has any ability to receive or manage clients' crypto. I consider that prosecution as duplicitous as calling octogenarians terrorists for opposing their governments' participation in the genocide of Palestine. These are the paste coming out of the tube, and it is obvious that tyrannical governments will continue to eradicate human rights and chattelize humanity until they collapse, or are prevented from doing so. While I think that is eventually inevitable, it might take decades of enslavement and suffering before it happens, and by then who knows what kinds of RNA and nanotech might be potential to control human slaves.

If we want to have the ability to communicate securely, to transact with crypto outside networks that can impose any limitation they want on such cryptos, making every crypto transmitted on a network of proprietary hardware owned by wannabe overlords into a CBDC, and only allow approved speakers to say approved statements. This is literally an existential threat to survival itself, because across history no pathological government bent on democide has factually alerted it's victims to their plans for them, nor how to withstand, supercede, or avoid them. Hundreds of millions of people have been killed in the 20th Century, and tens of millions already in the 21st Century, and they're just getting wound up.

Thanks!
