The compromise is full liberty (Mill's harm principle) for what's allowed, but legal limits on what is convenient.

I think the real third rail is that nobody wants to talk about whether and how much corporations should be allowed to take advantage of very stupid people.

I have become less libertarian over time not because my   ethics have changed but because adversarial tech has gotten more efficient at extracting value from unsophisticated people.

Used to lose 5-10% of people like this, but now it's 50, 60% and the water is still rising.

Daimo Pay. Build once, distribute everywhere

Doesn't it always boil down to continuing to improve the method that is used to decide what the legal limits are? 

Central planning may always be an "abject failure", but decentralized planning still hasn't been fully tested.

I feel like decentralized planning is what libertarianism actually wants, they just don't yet have the framework to fully comprehend how that would work in a way that doesn't compromise individual sovereignty.
