Crypto-Anarchy 101: (as Pictures) Get one easy to understand Picture for each protocol: Signal Signal is on the CIA contractor Amazon, and tries to use “sealed sender” to hide the metadata. However it’s flawed. Learn Tips for Signal:

~~ XMPP XMPP is well-trusted, but the OMEMO encryption dies with the domain it’s linked to. This means XMPP is nothing more than end-to-end encrypted email (with rotating keys). Learn about XMPP here: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/xmpp/ ~~ SimpleX SimpleX splits up messages into a give and take. It’s similar to a double-federated model. SimpleX users can change the relays mid-conversation, but new incoming messages are tied to government domains that can be censored. ~~ Session Session transcends physical locations through unique DNS, onion-routing, and data stored in a BitTorrent database. We use Session for an uncensored email list:

Why Session’s censorship resistance is the strongest | Simplified Privacy

~~ Arweave Arweave is to websites, what Session is to messages. Both have nodes being paid in a crypto to host a BitTorrent database. The main difference is Arweave stores the data DIRECTLY ON the blockchain.. and potentially forever. Learn about Arweave here:

~~ Nostr Nostr has no blockchain. Users cryptographically sign messages, and then directly post and receive from relays. Learn about Nostr here: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/nostrtutorial ~~ Bastyon Bastyon is the “Russian Nostr” because it’s good at penetrating Firewalls. Unlike Nostr, Bastyon has a blockchain, and home client computers can directly and easily act as nodes (which makes it tough for governments to block). Learn about Bastyon here:

~~ Bitcoin Lightning Lightning Channels are like an Abacus, keeping track of who owes who on the Layer 1. It does multiple hops for privacy, similar to Tor. ~~ Monero Monero hides the data by having fake “decoy” signers. Then having the reciever download and scan all the transactions for a match. Learn about Monero here: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/how-xmr-works/ ~~ The NSA Taps the Ocean Cables Simplified Privacy Our VPN allows for split traffic with fake decoy outputs, (like the “Monero of VPNs”). So your home ISP and the ocean cables see different packet sizes. Proof of Concept Beta The VPN currently supports split-traffic, but the cover traffic is manual. For example, opening a 2nd profile with a 12-hour music list, which is very easy with a bookmark homepage. One advantage of manual, is the server doesn’t know if it’s cover traffic or not. But we will be automating the cover traffic in future beta rounds. Learn About Our Split Approach:

Session messenger has a structure setup for Crypto-Anarchy. Because not only does it have no physical locations, but its own DNS for assigning keys. There is no path to stop it. Not even discovering the location of the server... The domain can be re-assigned. Yet it gets a lot of criticism. For example not rotating encryption keys automatically. So to better understand his design decisions, our organization interviewed KeeJef, Session Messenger's lead-developer. Interview w/ KeeJef: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/interview-session-messenger/keejef-vs-simplex.html

The biometric prison has begun. Amazon landed a deal with a hospital for a new hand-palm biometric sign-in for patients. They are targeting the sick and elderly, and say it's for convenience. C'mon scan that palm grandma. 1 million patients per year at these facilities for "Amazon One". It's optional... for now. What could go wrong? Oh, other than a year ago, quote: "Leaked documents reveal patient safety issues at Amazon’s One Medical" [2] Sources: [1]

Cloudflare is now blocking niche browsers. They just started doing it. Now they decide what software you can run. [1] BLOCKED: Pale Moon, Falkon, and SeaMonkey ALLOWED: Chromium, Firefox WHY: I believe they are purposefully trying to reduce the choices, so you're more likely to use the same browsers, that are more easily fingerprinted. Pale Moon is considered better by some, but.. Once again I am pounding the table that: a) If you're looking to do unique stuff, you're going to stand-out as unique b) If you think custom mods and forks is the answer, you're sticking out like a sore thumb, based on what flavors of JavaScript, you're uniquely blocking. So.. c) Plugins, forks, & extensions are not going to change the fundamental nature of web browsers, which is that... d) The way Chromium & Firefox are structured, is designed to empower the website developer, and not you. But.. e) You will not be able to stop using Web Apps, give it up. It's a dying battle. Instead, f) Simplified Privacy is a 2nd Linux distro of browsers, to empower you with enough options at the tips of your fingers, (such as different versions of the same browser), to easily and effortlessly overwhelm their surveillance. If you have not already spent the (less than 10 minutes) reading my Cloudflare Fingerprinting Guide, it's spoon-feeding you the critical information, with easy memes: [2]

Remember the old movie, Mars Attacks? Trump, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel are literally doing the World Economic Forum playbook of digital “input/output exit visas”, AI, and bullshit cryptos as a “low key bro” CBDC. Yes it’s better than the Democrats, but now that the Democrats lost, stop letting your friends cheer it on. Literally on the government leader social mediaS. Plural, both Twitter/X and Trump’s thing.

Every single tech website has news articles on Firefox's changing of their data privacy terms. If you waste time reading one line of their terms of service, you're a sucker. Mozilla has been doing corrupt spyware for years, and it's never going to change. All the bickering over this is a "time honeypot", in the sense that it wastes your time and captures attention from real solutions. Mozilla’s only real revenue, is being paid by Google millions of dollars a year to suck. The money is NOT based on users or any kind of success. They get paid to just use Google search, Google backdoors, and shut up. Google's goal is to not have competition to Chromium or their Search. They don't want Mozilla to succeed, it's on purpose their tech sucks. The real answer is our app's 2nd Linux distro that guts the telemetry and isolates the filesystem and networking stack. This article goes over the core issues with Mozilla, that also apply to Tor:

Google Calendar removed Black History Month And Women & Pride. You guys are gonna abandon the woke stuff just because Trump got in? Sounds like you never believed it to begin with.

Fiatjaf wanted to DDoS Monero, To get the darkweb using Bitcoin Lightning. But the opposite came true. Instead, the Monero darkweb has come to Nostr. These Monero market admins could have been debating on Dread, but they are here. It makes sense, because Nostr's the only place where nobody is in charge to censor or change the debate.

Most people run from their problems But if you're even reading my words right now, that means you've identified that Twitter and Central Banks are Tyranny, and you've done something about it. But those problems are easily visible, so it's easier to act... The irony of surveillance, is that those who do it, want to hide. So Fingerprint-com is one of the biggest, but they have their code server-side on websites, so you don't even know. uBlock Origin isn't going to show Fingerprint-com. And most people aren't even aware of when a website is on Cloudflare or not... let alone giving them a speed test, What if I told you that every 5 minutes they update a "fingerprint" record on you? Across nearly all websites. And that Librewolf, Brave, and most browsers don't offer any protection. But.. 5 minutes is ironically about how long it would take you to scroll through this easy visual picture slide-show and learn how to protect yourself. It's not even an "article", it's a bunch of educational memes:

They Update Your Fingerprint Every 5 Minutes Like the Movie "the Matrix", the Machines Eat Your Data LibreWolf is marketed as “anti-fingerprint”, but this web browser can’t even beat fingerprint-com’s free demo, I closed Librewolf, then re-opened it. And that same ID comes up on repeat visits, even in private mode. In this NEW easy visual picture slide-show, we'll go over how these fingerprinters work, (such as speed logs), and what you can do about it: One cool thing about Nostr over Twitter, is Elon Musk can't gag links off the platform. If I just put it all on Nostr, you'd have to read more, to figure out what's a source quote or my own words. Also, this is a brand NEW picture slide-show, so if you read the previous one on Tor/Mozilla, this is 90%+ new, Help me, help you:

New Easy Monero On-Ramp: @npub139xx...g46d is new convenient Peer-to-Peer Market to buy Monero without KYC. I agreed to post this if he'd come on Nostr. Unlike Reto, buying does NOT require pre-existing Monero or downloading software. It "just works" in a web browser. Unlike LocalMonero, the seller doesn't need to deposit the funds until the trade is accepted. This reduces exit scam risk. We observed OpenMonero being interviewed, and are excited to engage in free speech journalism. Since our organization only accepts cryptocurrency, we're interested in discussing easy ways to get it. Beginner Interview, How it Works: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/openmonero-peer-to-peer/easy-for-beginners.html Advanced Interview, How it Compares to Reto: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/openmonero-interview-with-the-dev/compared-to-reto.html Legal Disclaimer: SimplifiedPrivacy does not coordinate trades or sell services to do so.

Signal's CEO: "We're leaving Sweden" Sweden's government is pushing through new legislation that forces Signal, WhatsApp, and all other messengers to SAVE all messages for the government to gather. Signal is pushing back. [1] Once again, I encourage you to check out our recent podcast on Mullvad, whose home is in Sweden, and this exact criticism was laid out (predicting this news story based on the past votes). And that was the least of the criticisms. [2] Simplified Privacy has no bank accounts and no registration with any country for this exact reason. And that's why encryption as identity tools, such as Nostr and PGP-arbitration-registration, are our true home. Podcast: [2]

I think a Bitcoin-Nostr dude and a Monero-Nostr dude have more in common, Than a Bitcoin-Nostr and Bitcoin-Twitter guy. Because if you're on Nostr, you gotta figure the person is much more likely to also be doing circular economics, Linux, DeGoogled phones, privacy, and has liberty-minded political beliefs. While as there are so many Bitcoiners on Twitter just gambling on price, with no other awareness of what Bitcoin even originally solved. You may hate to admit it, but Nostr's bond (and culture) is stronger than fighting over which currency.
