Farcaster

I'm big on Farcaster. Thanks to everyone who followed and helped me reach this milestone in about exactly a month of using the platform. I really appreciate as well as the people who have followed the /dropglobalnews platform. I think this is a great community and I also like playing around with the crypto angle of it through staking, tipping, and earning engagement.

As I've mentioned earlier I just like the internet generally and am happy to find people who are doing their best to make it a better place for everyone. I encourage everyone using and building Farcaster to do their best and I'm sure that in the future it will attract a wide audience of users and hopefully be remembered as the first wave of second generation social media platforms that offer users a deeper web of relationships and better structure for consuming information.

I like Murtaza.

Years ago I thought we had completely different views.

But over the last decade I’ve become much more left-libertarian, after seeing naked abuses of corporate power. And he’s become more tech-libertarian, as he’s seen cryptography protect rights when laws can’t.

Glad to have him here.

what was the turning point for "after seeing naked abuses of corporate power?" Iraq war? Afghanistan?? Middle east in general? others?

Internet censorship by neutral platforms.

Collusion between goliaths to remove startups from app stores.

Manipulation of thought in the name of “AI safety.”

Cynical assaults on open source AI and defi.

Unholy coordination of government and commercial actors against citizens.

What Goliath was removed from app stores and you think it had potentials to rocket??
I Don't know how to say that, but we as citizens in third world as they call us, saw these from day one.
I don't know if it related to Conspiracy Theory, or it is based on the historical and practical experience that there is nothing done for good after seeing all the results later for the uses of any new inventions.

"AI safety?" I mean, really, do those manipulators need a reason to do it?
Or to even justify it. 

Complete massacres are happening right now, and guess what? No one cares, and few have the balls to stand against it. 

>> Never was justified. <<
