Show Notes

"It would be wrong to think of Cypherpunks as a formal group. It's more a gathering of those who share a predilection for codes, a passion for privacy, and the gumption to do something about it. Anyone who decides to spread personal crypto or its gospel is a traveler in the territory of Cypherpunk."
— Steven Levy

Today we journey back to 1993 to explore a seminal article on the cypherpunk movement and the battle for digital privacy. How have the concerns raised three decades ago evolved in our modern digital landscape? What progress has been made, and what challenges remain? Join us as we examine the roots of the crypto revolution and its implications for our future, asking: Are we any closer to achieving the cypherpunks' vision of a privacy-preserving and sovereign digital world?

"When making public policy decisions about new technologies for the Government, I think one should ask oneself which technologies would best strengthen the hand of a police state. Then, do not allow the Government to deploy those technologies."
