let's _use_ an object-oriented data structure maybe to plot a graph. this is hard for me to do now. oh no what language. maybe python because i'm familiar with it. class Node: def __init__(self, parent = None): self.children = [] self.parent = parent y'know, this is so hard for me to do, maybe I should get to know a data structures library in every language.

Following a few cryptocurrency sites - Decrypt, the Daily Hodl and CoinGecko market news - I'm often struck by the willful ignorance on display. As though revolutionary applied crypto was born yesterday. Of course its still early days and we can't expect any serious and sustained interest till we collapse a few govts. Russia's KGB dictatorship looks like a good place to start. Roll on the revolution! I think that blockchains will replace armies for national defense, because a blockchain-based assassination market will be created…" Zach. CryptoGo

Arresting the war-criminal, Pooter

" . . . my idea of paying the Russian military to arrest Vladimir Putin, and deliver him to The Hague for trial on war crimes charges. Once again, the specifics are completely up in the air at this point, but maybe all the members of NATO could contribute (based on their GDP) to a $20 billion fund that would award up to $2 million per person (plus an offer of asylum for that person and that person’s immediate family) for up to 100,000 members of the Russian military, for arresting Vladimir Putin and delivering him to The Hague for trial on war crimes charges. . .

Peace is a global public good for the global commons

“In 2017, 2018, no one had the idea that crypto was usable in the real world,” Moore says. “Peace is a global public good for the global commons… so I think it’s a maturation of the space over the last few years, and also the tooling is there now, where it wasn’t before, to really be able to get these things used in real-world situations.” https://decrypt.co/95417/gitcoin-grant-gr13-raised-1-million-in-crypto-for-… "I may end up starting a dot-com company to promote the idea of an AP-type system," Jim Bell said back in 2000. "I think the public wants to be able to buy freedom and liberty over the Internet."

I have received copious amounts of USG documents related to me ( technically an Au citizen ) from the USG. These arrived after repeated requests and a five year delay. They also contained many redactions. The FOI act is still being used today by activists to declassify the entire Mueller Report. Personally I think its mattered less every year - since 2010! - what they hide or reveal. They are a lame-duck global power compared to world opinion expressed online ( the ' next superpower ' ) And of course they are a dead-duck in the sights of any cryptoanarchist revolutionary. Welcome to the revolution!

[spam] [personal joke] Fwd: [Tails-news] Police raid at Zwiebelfreunde: Donor data compromised
by Karl Semich 17 Mar '22

17 Mar '22

I have a recurring monthly payment to these guys that I've never sorted out what is for or how to cancel or if I want to. It's been repeating for more years than this email is old. This month it cost me over $600 because my account was overdrawn and the charge kept repeating. I was over $200 negative when I looked. All my tails money went to banking institutions in overdraw and transfer fees, eating into all my other money. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Tails - News <rss(a)boum.org> Date: Sun, Jul 8, 2018, 2:53 AM Subject: [Tails-news] Police raid at Zwiebelfreunde: Donor data compromised To: <amnesia-news(a)boum.org> On June 20th 2018, German police searched the homes of board members of our former fiscal sponsor Zwiebelfreunde in a coordinated raid. Zwiebelfreunde (_Friends of onions_ in German) is a non-profit organization that supports privacy and anonymity projects and operates several Tor exit nodes. They are not accused of a crime but considered to be witnesses in a case: the operators of an anonymous website calling for protest against the far-right AfD (Alternative for Germany) party convention used an email address at Riseup, a privacy-friendly email provider to which Zwiebelfreunde facilitates donations. During the search, computers, storage media, personal items, bank account records, and paper receipts have been confiscated. This unfortunately means that if you have donated to Tails before October 18th 2017 using our European bank account, your data is now in the hands of the German police (IBAN account number, name of account holder, amount, and date). If you donated after this date, you donated to our new fiscal sponsor CCT and not to Zwiebelfreunde. According to Moritz Bartl, one of the board members, "_there's a long history of police using that kind of data to investigate social structures; who's working where, who's involved in which projects, so we have to assume that they are looking into the social networks of people_" ([Source](https://www.zdnet.com/article/german-police-raid-homes-of-tor- linked-groups-board-members/) <https://www.zdnet.com/article/german-police-raid-homes-of-tor-linked-groups…)> ). The raid has been strongly criticized by [German media](http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/hausdurchsuchungen-bei- netzaktivisten-chaos-computer-club-kritisiert-polizeivorgehen-a-1216463.html <http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/hausdurchsuchungen-bei-netzaktivisten-ch…> ) and [digital rights activists](https://netzpolitik.org/2018/zwiebelfreunde- durchsuchungen-wenn-zeugen-wie-straftaeter-behandelt-werden/ <https://netzpolitik.org/2018/zwiebelfreunde-durchsuchungen-wenn-zeugen-wie-…>) as being [disproportionate]( https://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2018/hausdurchsuchungen-bei- vereinsvorstanden-der-zwiebelfreunde-und-im-openlab-augsburg <https://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2018/hausdurchsuchungen-bei-vereinsvorstanden…> ).
