At the risk of sounding overly negative, i wonder how winnable this battle is. The internet was ‘free’ in the early days while it was the wild west. Likewise with crypto…
But it’s a freedom-at-the-frontier type thing. The slow moving regulatory machine catches up eventually.
For a long time I have thought that the only solution would be to wake up the masses, but that this is simply too hard to do with all the skillfully crafted propaganda and so on.
The masses may react to really hard times which may come soon, who knows. Either way, it seems those who see are just too few, and that each time the masses get tools to see, then
new regulations are put in place, sites are shut down and whatnot. So, yes, there is freedom at the frontier, but as long as too few are at that frontier, it does not help much.
As the poem says, " Hard times create strong men, Strong men create good times, Good times create weak men, Weak men create hard times. " .... we may need to wait for hard times.
A 'Sword vs Shield' game, regulatory regimes always be two steps late. Regulators will devolve into ordinary thug behavior, entrapment and fake arrests to keep funding income.
