interesting short doc. i think it's important to distinguish the apex control lies in ai/agi bot tech scaffolding. and i'm doing so, control is handed to the computer intelligence and smart validator apparatuses - with a human oligarchy overseeing them. if that's so acceptable and interesting and a savior system: why not say that instead of skirt the issue and talk in crossworded programmer code? if universal adoption is really the goal: why not make the compression accessible? jargon is a gatekeeing methodology, not an act of inclusivity.
Interesting documentary which sheds light for normies on the problems of centralization, commercialization, government control and warped incentives. However, it spends a considerable amount of time with folks that were caught up in those and contributed to the problem (however reformed we are expected to believe they have become). Still interesting and relevant, but it seems like it missed an opportunity by not including the people who recognized those problems, and the processes through which they crafted and offered an elegant open solution. Considering the complexity of the issues at play, there are a number of huge ones, this was no easy nut to crack. Somehow @Ben Arc, @fiatjaf and many other nostr contributors made it look simple. Witnessing the emergence of the nostr protocol and ecosystem has been fascinating and inspirational. I suspect there will be more documentaries to follow that go into greater detail so that others are inspired to follow in the footsteps of those who dare to disrupt negative practices by offering free (as in freedom), open and decentralized alternatives.

What I also think is a good way to familiarize "beginners" with Bitcoin and Satoshi Nakamoto's vision is this 6-part documentary by the French-German culture channel ARTE. All just over 10 minutes long and available in 6 languages. I would be very interested to hear how the "pros" @jack, @Gigi, @ODELL, and all the others rate/judge this documentary... (because maybe it's not as good as I see it because I don't understand enough...hmm) https://www.arte.tv/en/videos/097372-001-A/the-satoshi-mystery-the-story-of-bitcoin/

A family member wants to leave social media and is looking for an alternative. I sent him the link to the #nostrdocumentary from @Max DeMarco. It's still a masterpiece and I hope it will convice him to learn more about this powerful open source protocol. #nostr
