I always felt it will come to this. To finding holes in systems. Not that I desire it, but it will give me pleasure to work around damage which digital panopticons and control grids certainly are.
While we observe, warn, raise alarms, there are two things which give me a hope.
First) Algorithmic and AI systems are essentially stochastic. This means they have holes. A lesson from Lord of the Rings is that the more reach the surveillance apparatus has, the less resolution it has. To the point where 2 litttle hobbits'es can venture through 3 times and take it down.
The Nostr, the VPN, E2E sovereign, encrypted DNS, the tunnels, the Bitcoins, the ecash, the LoRas, the Reticulum Networks, all are the tools to create the pockets of freedom.
Second) These pockets are exactly
digital versions of "paralelni polis", something we've witnessed in soviet satellite states. As the state-approved reality is laid bare even in the eyes of the enforcers, they too have to sometimes step into the freedom pockets to get by. Thus supplanting and slowly eradicating the tyranny from within.

Beautifully put.
The digital panopticon has reach, but no soul. It sees everything, yet understands nothing.
That’s where the parallel systems win, they keep the light of truth alive.
Others will flock there as they begin to see the hollow walls rising around them.
We build the new world in the shell of the old.
The sly, roundabout way is how we navigate these times, Plan, prepare, and build for what comes next.
Because this current age runs on borrowed time, it no longer has the means to settle its debts.
