You people are such pansies. We could take you on all day long. I'm in Denver. Bring it. I will take you on the Colorado River, and if you say anti freedom stuff, I will drown you in the river. Try it out.

If one were to look at human biochemistry over time, modern tech has increased average life-spans, but we've done so at the expense of quality of life. Take the 'ultra-pasteuraization' process of milks as an example, it'

Are you calling me delusional? They ruled states have the freedom to design their own voting districts. State sovereignty has always been a thing in the US. I would encourage you to read the historical documents of the country where many

Only by some absurd idea of freedom you are able to summon. We have the freedom to be assholes yet. Sure, we lost battles against the totalitarians on several fronts, but we are still more free in the sense that one would be free as a sole

Canada has no power in the world. They are our surrogate. OBSD is in Canada because that's where de Raadt lives.

There is no country on the planet that stands for individual freedom more than the US; we were founded on the idea. The idea that Canada has stronger free speech protection is laughable. There is zero chance this idea goes anywhere. Look at

Anyone that thinks the SCOTUS, as it is currently comprised, will allow for a ban on encryption has no idea what the legal doctrine of The Federalist Society is, nor what it means to be an American conservative. This is the most libertarian

Keybase seems relevant here. Do they have any blockchain projects? Namecoin would seem an obvious partner.

How about we stop trying to come up with "solutions" that just cause more distortions, and exercise a bit of patience? The 'cost vs. benefit' analysis should reveal similar ROI as "the wall."

In the US, I can walk into a store and pay cash for a $30 flip phone without any ID, and unlimited talk and text. 15 years ago it was $150 and 200 minutes talk, 20 texts.

That's a good point, at least WRT After Words on C-SPAN where I believe the book author has a say in who their interviewer will be. Still, it was jarring someone would not push back on some of this crap that I see as "Bircherism

Watch the interviews. She does not call them out, no matter how ridiculous or unsubstantiated the claims being made are. It's utterly ridiculous. An interviewer is supposed to push back when claims are made that contradict reality. Chr

You are correct about that case, but others are well-documented, specifically regarding the AP and James Rosen: Dana Milbank of the Washington Post stated: "The Rosen affair is as flagrant an assault on civil liberties as anything don

I hate to be that guy, but I honestly hope you don't make decisions based on anecdotes, and instead rely on data. You are dependent on your vendors, period. Choose them wisely. This is not a mystery.

I can't tell if your argument is that we should artificially limit TLDs to increase competition? Is that the point you are making? Literally: "We will create monopolies and increase competition." Unbelievable.

Because this is your area of expertise, can I ask you why more registrars are not selling 10 or 20 year domain ownership? Who wants a domain for just a year (if you agree with the premise behind individuals owning domains in the first place
