RE: Cypherpunk Kidz
@Travis Such a good point about "yellow submarine graphics". I didn't want to reply to the whole list, just wanted to say that it's a really spot on remark.
Kids are not idiots.
I'd rather come to a Minecraft server as a kid and as an adult. There are some good MC projects for learning code. Nothing with security twist though I came across.
Barclays is cool, ok, but, I wasn't sure what it has to do with Cypherpunk Kidz - it's not so much about security and encryption?
We're up for setting up a Minecraft server for this purpose - learn code & security. Let me know if anyone would be interested to join: I can chat about it in detail in separate thread.
@Rysiek - any thoughts?
Also - multiplayers so make good live streams.

We're left to guess at what the point is but I doubt that Barclay's use of
javascript, cookies and analytics platforms are what Razer is pointing out.
I presume that Razer is miffed at the obvious indoctrination play that
comes off as a bit creepy. Perhaps Razer would like to see a Cpunks themed
playground where opsec is taught to toddlers?

Barclay's bank, you know they're cool because they use the wrong symbols
for punctuation and substitute letters for look-alike glyphs.
