BIP47 has been quietly carrying the privacy torch since 2015.
It survived wallet discontinuations. It survived Samurai going down. It is, every time, one centralized server failure away from losing its network effect.
Max Tannahill answer: put the directory on chain.
BIP47DB.ORG compresses payment codes into ordinal inscriptions on a single unspendable numbers address. Anyone can rebuild a payment directory from chain data. Wallets can skip the server entirely. And -- theoretically -- notification transactions could go away.

"This 2018 Creality Ender 3 - it was so ancient it didn't even have some of the security features that 3D printers have now. So it was one of these printers that could theoretically have kept going and burned my house down. So in order to update the firmware… they block VPNs. Going through Tor."
Gabriel Custodiet (Watchman Privacy) on this week's Freedom Tech Friday on why the cheapest 3D printer is almost always the wrong move — and why an extra $120 buys you a generation of progress in safety and usability.

"For around 300 bucks you get a pretty cool, all-in-one manufacturing tool that 150 years ago, you would need an entire warehouse in Victorian England to be able to do this kind of stuff."

Goooooood Morning ☕️
"From the moment you allow someone to print something, they can always find a way. But the landscape is terrifying - that now you get dictated what you can write on your Word document, you get told what you can and cannot print, and what you can and cannot do with your money."
Urban Hacker (Watchman Privacy) on this week's Freedom Tech Friday, on why 3D printer censorship is just one front in a much bigger trend.

Today’s project: a PWA for AI-generated audio summaries of podcasts and articles.
Paste an RSS feed or an article URL. The pipeline transcribes, summarises to 5-10 minutes, and renders the output as an MP3 served in a private RSS feed I can subscribe to from any podcast app.
New episodes from my subscribed shows auto-flow as they publish.
The PWA replaces my podcast app entirely. Library, lock-screen controls, AirPods skip, scrub, bookmarks with notes, an Up Next queue that auto-plays, and a chat window that answers questions about whatever I’m listening to using only the source transcript.
Stack runs entirely on my Mac.
Whisper local for transcription. Kokoro local for TTS. Claude Sonnet 4.6 for summaries via the Claude Code CLI so it bills against my flat Max plan rather than per-token.
Everything served behind Tailscale, just for me.
No SaaS, no per-episode cost, no third party holding the data.
Oh, and I built the whole thing from my phone. 😂
