Very true, but if you want to exist in the normal world these days it is very difficult to do so without having access to the internet.

If you have a farm, you produce your own food and you trade cash for medical supplies etc, then you can be off grid, but for most people, an online presence is essential.

The fact is, that with the current centralised structure you have no ownership of your data online. You give up control of your data, the moment you share it and large companies store it, analyse it and they will earn money from it.

Bitcoin and Nostr have the potential to fix this.
