Three founders of cypherpunks, Tim May, Eric Hughes, John Gilmore, 
covered the full political spectrum of extreme right to extreme left. 
Shared common ground of unlimited viewpoints, denied list moderation, 
opposed censorship of any kind. Maybe exhibited a tad of masculine 
aggressiveness in propounding their views and castigating opponents 
who favored rigged forums, orgs, coms and govs. Happily, a couple had 
sufficient wealth to resist corrupting bribery of careers, 
networking, publicity. Cypherpunks was named by a female, bestowing 
humor, humility and mock audacity to counter overmuch seriousness, 
pride and dog-eat-dog profitablility that has overtaken the digital 
enterprse (thought two wealthy came by lifetime comfort thanks to 
early mining of the 2nd California gold rush).

Imagine if Apple and Google, among umpteen others, had adopted the 
cpunks model of widest diversity rather the narrowest favored by 
exploiters of popular gullibility to excessively enrich a few.

Ironic that cypherpunks beloved code is the principal weapon for this 
global exploitation, now become genocidal through proliferation of 
electronic devices to spy on citizens in order to milk their 
yearnings. Trump hardly original with this dictatorial betrayal, 
indeed is one of the lesser evil doers.
