This is a revolutionary anarchists list
by professor rat 20 Sep '21

20 Sep '21

Has been for over two decades - an eternity in net years. This list was conceived, built and developed as a forum for advancing revolutionary anarchism. Strong-crypto, digital money, anonymous networks, pseudonyms, zero- knowledge proofs, reputations, information-markets, netwar, collapse-of-governments. Remember? TIMOTHY " An anonymous computerized market will even make possible abhorrent markets for assassinations and extortion " C. MAY 1992 TIM " I guess now that the Pentagon is setting up a murder pool it can't be illegal for us to do it " MAY. 2003 So? So, here is my prescription for those who can't bear to have their brownnosed conformity trifled with. I forbid you to ever again read *CYPHERNOMICON*. I also recommend you take a goodly dose of Hillbilly Heroin then return to your sedentary somnambulation in front of the Boob Tube. Also remember to keep your mouth shut and your head bowed when the truck pulls up out front to carry your sorry carcass off to the glue factory.

Blockchains to replace armies
by professor rat 20 Sep '21

20 Sep '21

Strong-crypto, digital money, anonymous networks, pseudonyms, zero- knowledge proofs, reputations, information-markets, netwar, collapse-of-governments. http://nakamotoinstitute.org/static/docs/cyphernomicon.txt What forbids us translating the freedom afforded by the Internet to ordinary life? I think that blockchains will replace armies for national defense, because a blockchain-based assassination market will be created…" Zach. CryptoGo To launch attacks under favorable circumstances is not only every anarchist revolutionary’s right, but their plain duty. The killing of spies, policemen, commissars, the blowing up of police stations, the liberation of prisoners, the seizure of government funds for the needs of the uprising—such operations are already being carried out wherever insurrection is rife. Marc responded, “indeed, free and open source software seems non-negotiable here: no backdoors, no skeleton key. National security establishment would balk at this though?” Rohan responds, “yes, fuck them. I don’t think we should be taking policy advice about how to design our money for the people who think the Patriot Act was a good thing ..." https://www.coindesk.com/podcasts/coindesk-podcast-network/us-digital-dolla…

Cypherpunks write code
by zeynepaydogan 19 Sep '21

19 Sep '21

We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. ... Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and ... we're going to write it." And there's something I'm curious about, what are people doing on this mailing list who aren't interested in information security that can't write a code? I really wonder why this mailing list isn't being used for its purpose? I don't want to see government licks and nationalists here. This is the cypherpunks mailing list.Please speak on purpose here. I hope it wasn't a hurtful speech. Castigat ridendo mores... Sincerly; RG Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.

Govcorp and corrupt turds, I mean, 'scientists'.
by Punk-BatSoup-Stasi 2.0 19 Sep '21

" A proper scientific reference is usually a published article in a reliable scientific magazine. These days the magazines are slick glossy paper with pictures on the front and lots of advertisements, a lot of editorial material by people who are professional journalists, and a few pictures of girls selling you things you might want to buy for your lab. The advertisers are the companies who make things for scientists to buy and the companies who make drugs for doctors to sell. There are no major journals without advertisements. Therefore, there are no major journals without corporate connections. "

Crypto Professor - the revolution is here!

https://blog.coinmarketcap.com/2020/02/28/professor-emin-gun-sirer-the-cryp… I had a much more limited vision, a much more realistic vision, but it would have been much better to have an unrealistic vision that rallies people than to have a realistic vision that is narrower in scope and doesn’t get people going with the same fervor. ( I'm not trying to recruit professor Sirer for our cause - he's a walk-in, after all. Cryptoanarchy runs on networked code )
