PRIVACY, FREEDOM & NOSTR with UNCLE ROCKSTAR (THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"When Cypherpunks wrote that privacy is necessary in order to establish democratic society in digital age, that's a profound statement, because you do look at states in which people do not have privacy, they can't have freedom in the digital age."On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with UNCLE ROCKSTAR.We discuss the political landscape, the importance of privacy in the digital age, and the role of developers in creating freedom tech, the impact of social media algorithms on discourse, the potential of Nostr as a privacy-preserving protocol for open source development, and the necessity of building parallel systems to foster individual sovereignty.ROCKSTAR'S LINKS:Nostr: https://primal.net/rockstarX: https://x.com/r0ckstardev*****THE Bitcoin Podcast Partners -- use promo code WALKER for...> bitbox.swiss/walker -- 5% off the Bitcoin-only Bitbox02 hardware wallet.> EFANI: Protect yourself from SIM swap attacks – go to https://www.efani.com/walker and it’ll automatically apply the promo code WALKER getting you $99 OFF.> Cloaked Wireless: 25% OFF eSIM or physical SIM cards and protect yourself from SIM swap attacks.*****If you enjoy THE Bitcoin Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following:Subscribe to THE Bitcoin Podcast (and leave a review) on Fountain | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | Spotify | HIGHLIGHTER | EVERYWHERE ELSEFollow me (Walker) on Twitter Personal (@WalkerAmerica) | Twitter Podcast (@TitcoinPodcast) | Nostr Personal (walker) | Nostr Podcast (Titcoin)
