Hello, random new account advising us not to come up with electronic solutions to electronic government surveillance!
>Some projects flourish sure but the same forces that profit off the court-less killings of others are collating your data, your pet projects. Harvesting your stolen info out of botnets.
What in the fuck does this even mean? How is it relevant? The only problem with "fresh" crypto projects is that if you fuck it up, and you have bad crypto, it's as good as no crypto.
Most of us here don't work for those companies, nor do most people being spied on, so this advice sucks.
Legislation and regulation are the long-term methods of stopping this, but the short-term method of dealing with a technological problem is better technology.

Through courts, around courts, under courts. Undermined using infrastructure and resources provided by many potential contributor's day jobs. A bit like trying to build a castle on the weekend while getting paid to help knock it down during the weekdays. Wondering why it didn't amount to much some time later.
