RE: Crypto and the Coming KYC Internet
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
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.
