Durov's arrest is a 'dark omen' for 'digital 'freedom. When privacy becomes a crime, the world tilts toward tyranny!
Authoritarian regimes fear platforms that protect us & they'll stop at nothing to silence them. (But they can’t shut down Nostr).
This isn't just an attack on one man, 'it's a warning to all who stand for privacy & freedom'…
https://youtu.be/GsUWK-OUtRg?si=OeBVDIp7N2zf6Spk Everyone is rightly freaking out about Pavel Durov’s arrest in France. We need to understand why he was arrested and what governments of the world think about regulating speech, platforms, and protocols online.
I strongly recommend people read Seeing Like A State. The state operates on its own logic which is really different from the way people, communities, and companies work. The state can and has been incredibly damaging to people and society but it operates with a kind of internal logic and we can’t resist without understanding the state.
