He's so full of himself to the point of self-quoting... troll, spammer and government agent rayzer. Barf.

US: Forced Decrypt, Right to Remain Innocent, Rubber Hosing

https://news.slashdot.org/story/17/03/20/207244/sorry-ive-forgotten-my-decr… https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/03/20/appeals_court_contempt_passwords/ The US Third Circuit Court of Appeals today upheld a lower court ruling of contempt against an ex-cop who claimed he couldn't remember the password to decrypt his computer's hard drives. In so doing, the appeals court in Philadelphia avoided addressing a lower court's rejection of the defendant's argument that being forced to reveal his password violated his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination. In the case under review, the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania held the defendant – referred to in court documents as "John Doe" because his case is partially under seal – in contempt of court for willfully disobeying and resisting an order to decrypt external hard drives that had been attached to his Mac Pro computer. The defendant's computer, two external hard drives, an iPhone 5S, and an iPhone 6 Plus were seized......

Shut Up, Be Happy!

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/mar/20/norway-ousts-denmark-as-world… https://www.cato.org/human-freedom-index https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=shut+up+be+happy Happiness in the US is declining and is expected to continue on a downward path, with Donald Trump's policies forecast to deepen the country's social crisis. The US has slipped to 15th place in the World Happiness Report 2017, produced by the United Nations. The world's economic superpower is well behind top-ranked Norway, although it remains above Germany in 17th place, the UK in 19th, and France in 32nd. Norway knocked Denmark off the top spot as the world's happiest country, with Iceland and Switzerland rounding out the top four. The report's authors stress, however, that the top four are so close that changes are not statistically significant. The next tier of countries are regular leaders in international happiness surveys: Finland is in fifth place, followed by the Netherlands, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Sweden. The world's "unhappiest" countries are all in the Middle East and Africa: war-stricken Yemen and Syria feature in the bottom 10, with Tanzania, Burundi and Central African Republic making up the final three.

Re: Governance vs Decentralised Systems, Gold, Cash, Bitcoin

There's certainly lots of real world governance models to try to draft and execute. Then there's another problem 1) Governance in the first place. and / or 2) That it's run by humans who are by nature corrupt. There could simply be some type of free for all network, new block refer to prior block, fork at will, solicit trust and longest chain adoption rather than sell it. Networks could be made to simply refuse to transact if parameters ever change... design it, launch it, and forget it, sink or swim. Users move their value from ship to ship. AI bots could execute within a novel network to - provide governance over humans, acceptance of patches. and or - adjust network paramaters by trial and error thus learning to solve its own problems. Some new networks may be created anonymously, where changes are locked to the anonymous creator by the AI. If creator disappears without key handoff, the net goes sink or swim at that point. Benevolent creator can quietly in safety cherry pick from some git repo community. Some users may just trust creator, or choose various creator nets that have some high vote% rollback and creator freeze options. Some many unexplored models and new ideas to yet come up with.
