YC couldn't care less about the Kirchners...
The goal is to build a governemnt for the internet society, a government for the world.
We have lived in an infrastructure that basically consists of corporations and the nation state. The internet is an emergent superstructure that makes such infrastructure obsolete.
That's the world we are looking at and hopefully aiming to provide governance to with free software.
- dguaraglia 12y agoI know that, but you can't divorce that from the fact that people (specially people in a government that is feeling under attack) will see any funding from a US-based entity as proof that the US is behind attempts to destabilize it. And to be fair: can you blame them? Every effort by tech companies to support "free speech" during the Arab Spring did end up in massive unrest. Why would the government of Argentina want something like that? Again, it's a question of 'optics', and the optics are already pretty tainted down there.
