If you aim to disrupt the status quo, build pseudonymously - be like Satoshi. Itβs lonelier, harder, and lacks podcast fame, but itβs your only chance to finish your work without imaginary entities wasting your limited lifetime on real struggles. Support those who tried openly. π
I am a criminal.
You are a criminal.

I said it once, I'll say it again about all the compliancepunks out there:
'Compliant privacy' is like... you can have triple anal and still be technically a virgin, right? (Pardon my French, but itβs the only analogy that fits... pun intended.)
What is your plan if it's ABSOLUTELY impossible to comply with the future EU Chat Control Act AND still protect users' privacy?
Evgeny Poberezkin, are you ready to be the next Ladar Levison? Can you publicly promise will SimpleXChat will follow Lavabit's path IF it's impossible to comply?
If we do nothing, new technologies will give the government new automatic #surveillance capabilities that Stalin could never have dreamed of. The only way to hold the line on #privacy in the information age is strong #cryptography .
