The European Commission lost the Chat Control 2.0 battle over access to end-to-end encrypted data. By the summer 2026, they will be back with their next attempt: Going Dark. This time some EU member states want to include VPN services.
What will the MullvadVPN team do if they manage to pass such a law including VPNs? Also leave the EU as GrapheneOS is now doing?

If someone can access memory while a system is live, they don’t need to break encryption or crack a blockchain. They can watch or interfere with what’s happening in real time and take what they need. It’s less like breaking into a safe and more like stepping in while the vault door is already open.

Why Crypto’s Next Security Problem Won’t Be On-Chain
I had a conversation recently that genuinely shocked me.
It was with a founder whose company focuses on protecting system memory - the physical mem...
Politicians have been telling White European men that they are the problem with society for decades while White woman have consistently voted to abolish European culture. The same emotionally manipulated woman have been telling men they are not needed and that masculinity was toxic.
Now these assholes are surprised that these White men don’t feel the obligation to die for the policies they were subjected too for the last 30 years.
Go and ask one of the millions of immigrants you've brought in to fight for you instead.
What if the very movement that promised freedom became the perfect tool of control?
What if the very technology sold to us as liberation… was slowly twisted into a tool of mass surveillance?
Not everything belongs on-chain. And not all transparency is liberation. Let’s point the tools upward, not inward. Toward truth, not tracking.

Freedom. Decentralization. A money system that couldn’t be manipulated.

Total privacy on the internet was probably never realistic to begin with, but crypto made it even harder.
The “own your data” and “own your identity” stuff? Yeah, that didn’t really happen either. Most people don’t want to manage keys for their identity and even if they did, the tools aren’t there. It’s clunky, confusing and the social layer… trust, recovery, resolving disputes… just doesn’t exist yet. It sounded good in theory, but in practice, it’s not something people actually want to use.
Nightmare. Turning wallets into permanent reputational IDs is how you kill privacy and build a surveillance (credit) score system on-chain.
When will we get a widely adopted SSI (Self-Sovereign Identity) solution that verifies and authenticates a human’s identity, without sharing any of their personal information?
The problem is, even if the info stays private, the way you access it -> your device, your network, your timing… can still leak too many infos.
We need to rebuild everything… or we’ll keep fooling ourselves with surface-level solutions while the system keeps watching.

As if you didn't know already, but for me this is the ultimate proof of big food and corporate craziness, utterly disgusting!
