I fight laws that restrict what bits I can put on my website.

Unlike humans, computers see everything as bits (numbers). They can’t tell the difference between the random movement of a lava lamp and a copyrighted song. I believe that our technology should similarly make no distinction and that I have the right to transmit arbitrary bits.

Here’s a list of laws that restrict this right, in order from least controvertial (i.e. most people agree this freedom shouldn’t be restricted) to most.

In the US, it is illegal to possess or distribute child pornography, apparently because doing so will encourage people to sexually abuse children.

This is absurd logic. Child pornography is not necessarily abuse. Even if it was, preventing the distribution or posession of the evidence won’t make the abuse go away. We don’t arrest everyone with videotapes of murders, or make it illegal for TV stations to show people being killed.

Waters is a straight up tankie who blames NATO for invasion of Ukraine.

You know what, conservatives should have him. That would be fun to watch.

Too many points of failure too. A solid arch or a lattice would’ve worked better.

For one, Bitcoin is inefficient and energy intensive technology.
