Meta is sending emails to their users informing them that their public data will be used for AI training if they don’t object in time. If you have an Instagram or Facebook account you might want to object to that.

I’ve been here for a short time, but my impression is that is much easier to get engagement on nostr than trad social media. It might be because I share interests with the majority here, I don’t know. All I know is that this looks very much alive

Money is a ruler by which we measure what length of the economy belongs to whom.
The fiat system allows some people to add centimeters (or inches for my imperial friends) to that ruler, without any changes in the real economy.
As a result, even though you nominally have the same amount of centimeters as before, the ruler itself has more centimeters with which it measures the economy. This means that your centimeters don’t buy as much as it did before.
#Bitcoin is a golden ruler that doesn’t allow for a single nanometer to be added to it. As the economy grows and the ruler stays the same, your centimeters buy more and more (since the entire economy has to fit the same ruler).
If that doesn’t do the trick to make someone understand Bitcoin I don’t know what else will.

1. Pass a law forbidding nostr altogether. With high fees or even prison time for anyone running a relay or even accessing the network.
2. Mandate removal of all known client apps from app stores.
3. Suspension of all known client domains.
4. Spam any remaining relays with bot posts

If #Bitcoin is decentralized, unbreakable money and #nostr is decentralized, unbreakable social media, what would be a decentralized, unbreakable government?

We already grabbed that power back. Whoever chooses a Bitcoin standard is immune to central bank money debasement. It’s not in the future.

A part of me feels that ideas like #Bitcoin and #nostr are unstoppable on their own. As financial repression happens, people naturally gravitate towards hard money and will eventually find and use Bitcoin. Of course, not everyone will get it during their first eye-opening contact with money debasement, but as the rounds of financial repression continue more and more people get on board. The only way it could be stopped would be for fiat money to become integral which will not happen (if it did we wouldn’t need Bitcoin to begin with). Same goes for nostr and speech repression.

I agree. Same for Bitcoin. It is for everybody. It’s for you and me and BlackRock and the US and Chinese governments and whoever else wants to embrace it. When we have everyone on a money standard that cannot be debased value will tend to be naturally distributed to everyone according to their contributions. Fiat aristocracy might even get a head start, but they can’t enslave people forever on a hard-money standard.

If you’re always feeling tired and sickish, try the following for 20 days:
1- Reduce ultra-processed food as much as you can. Try to eat real food (if it comes in a package it’s not real food). Make 80% of your diet real food.
2- Exercise. Here’s what worked for me: Resisted workout twice a week and 30 min running on any day I don’t workout (at a 6 min/km pace).
3- Prioritize your sleep. 6 to 8 hours a day. Go to bed everyday at the same time (I do 10pm) and wake up everyday at the same time (6 am for me).
4- Drink a lot of water. Seriously, you are not drinking enough water.
5- Quit any type of self sexual gratification.
6- This is a bit personal. It worked wonders for me, but it’s not for everyone. Have some type of faith. To me it’s a very personal view on God and spirituality that I accumulated during my entire life. If you want to hear some ideas about consciousness and spirituality that are different from mainstream religion search for David Hawkings. I found it very enlightening.
7- If you can, reduce screen exposure and social media.
8- Expose yourself to the sunlight for at least 30 min a day.
These made me feel like I have superpowers, even though after a while I realized it was basically just getting rid of my kryptonite.

In a way I’m happy my freedom of speech was attacked. It pushed me towards more resilient tech, like nostr. It also pushed me to care about internet privacy, something that I never really cared about. Thanks for the interaction, I admire you since Bitcoin Miami 2021. Trust me, I can’t talk about nostr enough. We are not selling! And we are not being silenced!

Remember: freedom of internet access and internet privacy are rights, and rights are not given, they are taken! https://image.nostr.build/964e6ad9fd8ac62878f85db3bf71cb15d1f6c8446702d7dd02d1143135241836.jpg

Recently I found the motivation I needed for a crash course in internet anonymity. Here’s what I’ve learned so far (don’t use it for anything that it’s illegal in your country 😉):
1- Use TOR browser. Your ISP has no way of knowing what websites you visit nor what data you consume / produce. Plus, your route goes to different places, so it kind of acts like a VPN (remember, don’t use it to access anything that is illegal in your country).
2- Don’t authenticate with your phone (does anyone know about a web-based disposable phone number for authentication?).
3- This is obvious: don’t log in into any account on any website that could be traced back to you. Start new, fresh accounts.
4- To start a new fresh account on most websites you’ll need an email address. Use https://tuamaeaquelaursa.com for a quick disposable email address (there are plenty other options) or Proton Mail if you want something more durable.
5- If you want to go next level anonymous, use Tail Linux booting from a pendrive. This OS doesn’t write to your local disk drive, and all data sent and received from the web goes through the TOR network.
6- @npub1dd9…xe7p is a VPN service that hides what you do on the internet even from themselves. Unfortunately still not available for usage, only for testers. Check out their discord server for more info.
7- If you want to go full tin foil hat on it, don’t use your own computer and ISP. Instead buy a cheap notebook, run Tail Linux on a pendrive and use public WiFis.
If you know more about internet anonymity please share!!
