2025 was an incredibly rewarding year, full of unexpected gifts and meaningful opportunities. With Open Dialogue Foundation, we continued supporting people where it mattered most. We assisted in delivering hundreds of bionic hands to veterans in Ukraine, exposed in the U.S. Congress and European Parliament the weaponisation of behavioural data, Silver and Purple Notice of #INTERPOL and shed light on transnational financial repression by authoritarian regimes like #Kazakhstan, #Kyrgyzstan, and Russia reaching EU and U.S. citizens and entities. We contributed proudly to stopping Chat Control regulation again and shared personal stories reminding why we should be especially active in protecting the privacy of payments, communications, and their developers in the digital era. Encryption of communication and #Bitcoin are the two tools serving as fundamental guarantees for human rights in the digital era. On a personal note, after years of separation and health challenges, long-pending divorce papers were finally granted this year, and I fully regained my health. I'm deeply grateful for the people, lessons, and moments that shaped this year. Looking ahead to another wonderful one. Photo credits: @mkphotons

Update on bringing attention of #transnational financial repression - urgent need to defend our privacy, #behavioral data by the European Parliament. 🧡

BEHAVIORAL DATA MUST BE PROTECTED Some results after our advocacy mission educating MEPs in #Brussels about how dictators and their proxies weaponise behavioural data against #EU and #US citizens and entities: travel, communication, and financial service providers collect data about every single person. This work is now reflected in the 2025 annual human rights report introduced by the European Parliament. We are grateful that MEPs are ready to back our testimony and the evidence from the #Belgian court on how #FATF recommendations are being heavily abused to undermine security and financial integrity. This why our top priority to defend privacy as a fundamental human right in digital age regulation.

My ‘may I meet you’ comes along with ‘what do you know about #Bitcoin’ and… ‘are you ready to defend #privacy?’ 😂 🧡

Good question from @Knut Svanholm ∞/21M : how orange pilled are you? This is my reply 😜

🧡 Lugano Are you here?

Fully agree with brilliant speech and long term vision of @ODELL : we live in the digital world, where privacy is the most expensive. And we don’t have much choice: freedom has to become profitable, or it stops existing. View quoted note →

See you in #Amsterdam! Orange Stage (only 😍) Are you coming?

Our #financial, #travel, and #communication data is a honey pot—behavioral data that every criminal, authoritarian regime, and bad actor hunts for, desperate to know everything about their targets. This is why you must know how to protect your behavioral data: why #Bitcoin P2P, #encrypted communication, and many other digital tools matter more than ever. I had a moment to share my story on how Bitcoin and privacy tech help defend against unjustified financial blockades, secure aid for protective and medical equipment, and push back against the weaponization of #FATF rules for transnational repression.

#Pumpkin time! Do you like pumpkin flavor? 😍

🚀GERMANY STANDS ON THE SIDE OF PRIVACY! Three important statements on the EU’s Chat Control regulation from the Federal Ministry of Justice of Germany: - The proposed Chat Control Regulation involves “indeed very serious intrusions into privacy,” with the core issue being the extent of such intrusion. - The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has already established narrow legal limits in its previous rulings on data retention. - It is essential that any future regulation be legally sound and proportionate, reflecting Germany’s concern for upholding privacy rights even when combating serious online crimes such as child sexual abuse. ⏱️ Use these arguments in your message to your government before 14 October 2025! ⏱️ Ask your MP/MEP to support your voice! ⏱️ Encourage your friends in Italy, Greece, Portugal, and Spain to join the Stop Chat Control campaign!
