Even journalists have managed these kind of investigations. &#34;Anonymized&#34; location data is unfortunely not anonymous — it *can never* be anonymous. And yet it is sold like any other product.<br/><br/>Your phone&#39;s movements through physical space are unique.

Their car has a cellular modem in it — which is always tracked. 99% of investigation is one guy and a search box. If you&#39;re not low-hanging fruit, you aren&#39;t gonna merit the Eye of Sauron of manual, well-resourced, focused team attention—and if you did, you probably planned ahead for it, right? Because it&#39;s not a mystery what would get you on Santa&#39;s Naughty List.<br/><br/>Anyway, the point is that even in a big city, the phoneless guy in a &#34;covid&#34; mask is going to be invisible to anything less than that exhaustive manual investigation — at least for a few more years. That may go away once they start networking all the cameras and having AI start trying to match up clothing sets moving from camera to camera, butthat capability is hard to hide, so it&#39;ll be in the news. And it won&#39;t work that well in places with less camera density and, perhaps, for people who wear the most-common outfits (the visual equivalent of a &#34;shared fingerprint&#34;).<br/><br/>Remember: Phones are useful, but dangerous. And the people who will still wear covid masks to the beach are helping to normalize facial obscurity—regardless of their intention. Don&#39;t be mean to them. Encourage them to wear them everywhere. For passport photos. In police booking photos. At the customs desk. Family portraits!

Most human interactions today seem to be mediated by a pane of glass. When I lived in Japan, I remembered that on the train to Tachikawa, it felt like every face was looking down towards a phone. But it&#39;s the same in Moscow. It&#39;s the same everywhere. <br/><br/>Even in restaurants, you witness couples that aren&#39;t looking at each other — they&#39;re both looking at different apps.

Enforcing the limits of official power isn&#39;t some American $currentYear problem, it&#39;s a recurring issue throughout history. <br/><br/>The question is why we&#39;re suddenly seeing the authoritarian instinct activating so much more openly — and frequently. In prior decades, they had to be cute in how they went about it, often requiring laws and lies. Now they&#39;re remarkably comfortable simply stating &#34;because of the &#39;emergency,&#39; you can no longer {travel | donate | engage in commerce | read | communicate | carry},&#34; and that&#39;s the whole of it.<br/><br/>The next question is what you&#39;re going to do about it. 2023-09-10T14:34:00Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsfw6gkysjd8sjgxrzse3tgav3939e7dq59z2ephlua0av7aww5rqqzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqehp5jp In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsr95d4fhwtzuldd00y87dr2ywpu52wa2q7tszxr282a63z7khtjesklsl9q'>nevent1q…sl9q</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hadn&#39;t heard of this!

Whenever I show somebody how it works, there&#39;s always that &#34;wow&#34; moment. But why was it a surprise?<br/><br/>The problem is that normal people still understand BTC from the one half-remembered opinion piece they read in 2017, and are operating under the belief that transactions still take an hour to settle, rather than being instantaneous and irreversible — money transmission without the Paypal Problem.

At times it feels like there is a fabric of &#34;permissioning&#34; being lowered over what were nominally public spaces, for previous generations. I worry that one day we will wake in a world where if you don&#39;t have the right face, the right politics, the right cash — or more likely, card — there will be no place to go.

The original title was significantly more radical: &#34;Resistance to Civil Government.&#34; <br/><br/>It&#39;s quite short, and I would encourage everyone here to read (or re-read) it. It is still tremendously relevant. Re-reading it with the original (un-sanitized) title in mind, it lands even harder. <br/><br/>These days, Thoreau would probably get his door kicked in. <br/><br/>Here&#39;s a free link to the Project Gutenberg copy: <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/files/71/71-h/71-h.htm">https://www.gutenberg.org/files/71/71-h/71-h.htm</a><br/><br/>Share your favorite quotes, after reading. 2023-07-01T20:22:40Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2mx8q4h084a7z3a4n3k9la0utumpj9d35gz06xx6gsds50rg9shqzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqkjpa9y In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrg08wzz6fgh6kl52rnldp7xq7r2anj8ja0ma9cj5kfxrlc6v2zzg70lpcr'>nevent1q…lpcr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>No. 2023-07-01T20:00:46Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqst3e7eau9tl2t9ahrh86lty8z6tddh200e0m5cjrsjw66wzd5pz7qzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqvu8eqw People are just nicer here. 2023-07-01T19:49:33Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8xg9g9rhxcs9zjqwe9g9zlavxzclfsd70utm7p8j4m9ghdfnjleczyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqk03dy9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstj0wgdgplzypp5fjlg5vdr9mcex5me7elhcvh2trk0836y69q9cgsn6gzr'>nevent1q…6gzr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Still need a way to break the &#34;Tyranny of the App Store&#34; though. 2023-07-01T19:33:43Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvx7c4h0uxe6kuz3vcrc0amse0ysxnehq7l6ka0rnrmltlewlfuhszyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqzrzst8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszgppt4htahzpqzcdp8cpc2ysqqsw9sk0gnuy7kl3zxjwczgjvdagkucdg3'>nevent1q…cdg3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I really should. 2023-07-01T19:32:34Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsx572908yuhj3jgkk7gvlnc527986tcaz8anweus548ewzn7n2w3qzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqryn6pm can&#39;t use twitter without sensitivity training<br/><br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_2eacca8f9f55428e0bdf3d6befd6266ae3c6a607d34454a6cb8619c5ee0c0d38.png"> 2023-02-23T18:01:06Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgxjvrausd3gf2q9vsfm03xw6hajtuqa0yuf52ljqy0z74ddfrj8szyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyq7583mt The bad news: Twitter&#39;s insanely puritan algorithm just massively deboosted my tweets because I posted a baby picture.<br/><br/>The good news: nostr still works just fine. 2023-02-18T19:41:50Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspf5ppzz9hac4lfn0q4g5z9mu0yzjfnhkpjyrtlgjdvnv3jdat7uczyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqxwlmcx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyw8zu07uwa86ffkql5ghyukzwjxdv08yxakq42gh983sq6mhjzhsu9n5mx'>nevent1q…n5mx</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>🫂 2023-02-16T19:56:26Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspm3tumzdp9qpdkfe2dja4ku7d3xjhcul5efftaq4nnl8ge6x7zjszyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqe6yquy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxp5ynldfyqh2y20t60znaedm38elm9mcdy4a4m2e9qepzmzvxklsrjj8hw'>nevent1q…j8hw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>why do they keep dragging this poor one hundred year-old man outside of his home 2023-02-16T19:53:40Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsppc4d64tt299qm3987gqgn3js8fw2r2zf6e76azsmqvj770qw2qqzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqns49tj This is the happy place. 2023-02-16T19:48:13Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqxd049pmdfgmej8qpzx2e4p3ym45sjcun5jmdz5fvclf2shx7ctgzyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyqdtrpud #[0] 2023-02-16T19:36:35Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9jcqd9d6pdvxvf6c70p62z896pcktyuqdj4e7l7njenewsrjfkcczyzzdaehxwmjmkea5448qgt8hpj7cdqg4tk6nt9p0e34q2vu93feyq52ry0v My wife climbed higher on the ranked ladder than SBF.
