How can a technology make the state's monopoly on violence obsolete?
In my opinion the best response I've seen to any state monopoly on violence is the US Second Amendment.
I guess 3d printed guns are a technology built around this same principle of empowering non-state actors to arm themselves. If everyone were armed, no one could have a monopoly on violence.
Is that the kind of freedom tech you had in mind?
