Holy fuck, this actually looks plausible, though I'll need to read more about it to be sure. That said, I'm really more interested in blockchain-type stuff as a means of holding secure and trustworthy elections electronically, or constructing darknet sites, than making deflationary "sound money" pyramid schemes, so a cultural shift among devs is hopefully the next step.
Sorry user, if internet access is walled off, the only option will be the meshnet meme. And after that, if normalfags become lag-tolerant enough for OnLive-style dumb mainframecloud terminals to be accepted, you won't even be able to buy anything outside devkit-licensed turnkey systems with a general-purpose CPU or local storage to hack anymore.
They just want to scare people in to doing it. They don't have the ability to make it impossible. But if they can punish 1% or less in a way that scares everyone else in to compliance, they'll have won. Much like how individuals, sometimes just kids, were sued millions of dollars over copyright infringement cases for p2p to the point that enough people just stopped altogether.

Not happening. We're already shutting down mosques.
Is it just me or all of the current cancer culture and politics originates from USA? SJWs, BLM, LGBT, antifa, 3rd wave feminism... Thanks to large US based tech companies, this shit tends to spread here and creates unnecessary problems. Things were a lot calmer before mass adoption of smartphones.

I'm not entirely sure. The Amercan left has always had this weird desire to be "just like europe" though. I'm sure the cancer is free-flowing at this point however. And hopefully the EU next.

It is in the nature of the white man to war with each other in any way shape and form imaginable. From the dust will arise new breeds of whites and the entire process will begin anew. Until there is only one.
