RE: Crypto and the Coming KYC Internet

That's really intriguing, I think I recall you mentioning Reticulum in a post somewhere, or I saw someone talking about it. It is indeed a wonderful thing!
For the KYC internet issue, do VPN's relieve some of the issues in terms of getting out without KYC, knowing that the likes of Fakebook and others are going to attempt to implement it so that would be needed from that, but web searching is still open, at least I think.

I use a VPN at all times now, but I have been told that Tubeyou is now blocking VPN's (I don't know because I avoid using Goolag products, and that includes their video platform). VPN's can be automatically blocked by platforms, and by ISP's, so they aren't a foolproof solution to KYC. I am not technically competent to assess Reticulum's ability to ensure access to platforms that want to ensure their users are KYC'd, but I assume it can be blocked too.
However, it seems to me that such platforms aren't particularly critically important to free speech, as they intend to not support it and purpose to block folks routing around censorship. For crypto, they don't matter at all, but exchanges, where cryptos are transacted, matter a great deal. I assume that CEX's will have to enforce KYC, but it is my hope that DEX's do not, and that will enable crypto to be useful and valuable when availed a Reticulum mesh network owned by it's users.
Great words, thanks man! I as well use a VPN 24/7 now for the simple fact that I want to provide the data brokers with as little data for them to sell of mine as possible. Privacy is of course an added bonus!
It's a strange world that's for sure! I hope there are enough people aware of these issues with the attempted control of the internet to refute it and establish bastions against the tyranny.
