Crypto-anarchy rising
I usually refer to the present internet as ' anarchic ' and ubiquitous anarchist networking as a desirable goal so long as the ' anarchy ' is trad anarchist and not Lunar Right aryan rants. Its victory is certainly going to bring problems with it as a huge change affecting almost everyone. However, they are a second-order issue and we have increasingly strong AI to help us through this phase transition. ' Democracy' and ' democrat' were political swear-words for centuries - now it the turn of ' anarchy' and ' anarchist ' - no biggie. The idea of cypherpunks selling encryption is as risible as Las Vegas selling gambling. Encryption sells itself - why all c-punks should have some skin-in-the-crypto-currencies game. So our victory is assured and there's no doubt about that. The only question is 'when?' Why I promote Cypherpunk 2027 - six years at full warp!
