Lots of people went to prison before weed finally won its space from the war on drugs, let's hope the coders are ready to man up.
In a slave paradigm freedoms aren't given, they are taken by those that want them.
Free people don't need permission.

Code is protected by free speech.
It's the people who run the servers (execute the code) that take the real risks.
But again this can be outsourced to other countries and things like that.
Plenty of anon people running servers that are hard to track down because no paper trail.
Hard to follow the money when people aren't using a credit card for payment.
Freedom isn't free. Code is only protected as free speech from the USG, and as we can see from probative documents that protection is illusory, because the USG was directing the censorship effected by social media companies.
Speech is only free if you protect it from censors, just like any other freedom only exists if you protect it from anyone that would take it.
Payment processors are today censoring people by preventing them from receiving money. Governments are seizing bank accounts without legal process. Banks are just taking the money people deposit without legal consequence.
Is shutting down the electrical grid it? Seizing all our servers? Executing each and every one of us? It seems unlikely that any of these things will happen, until they happen. It's also not necessary that any of these things be done because of HBD at all for them to effectively get rid of HBD. The asteroid that got rid of the dinosaurs didn't set out to make them extinct. It just happened.
I have lost everything I owned more than once. What I learned from that is that I grossly underestimated hazard, and that is why I did not adequately secure my assets.
Learn from my mistakes.
INDEED!
Here's the thing: crypto is all about inefficient redundant solutions that are highly inefficient but extremely robust against systemic failure. I just need to extend that concept into all aspects of live, using crypto to subsidize everything else that can't carry its own weight.
See?
That's exactly what your message is.
Stop rushing forward and secure the borders.
Easier said than done, I suppose.
Sad that we just accept as a matter of course that these people get to control those people through violent means because reasons.
Perhaps that is the button we should push.
Rule by force being a disease.
Bad for children and other peaceful beings.
