I hope everyone is ok.?I think this issue is important so I think all of you should read this email I wrote.? For years, I have been immersed in the world of cryptography and have worked as a researcher in the field of digital privacy. Recently, there have been numerous developments that give cause for concern. As a digital privacy activist, I am committed to raising awareness about the critical need for robust privacy protections in today's interconnected world. The ever-expanding digital landscape necessitates vigilant advocacy to ensure that individuals rights to privacy are upheld and respected. ?The EU's planned laws would use emerging technologies to detect new and existing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and child grooming activities, and would give national authorities the power to oblige digital services to scan users? communications, including encrypted messages.??? https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2023/10/19/planned-eu-laws-on-child-sexual-abuse-have-sparked-a-bitter-privacy-row-why The proposed legislation mandates the implementation of a compulsory scanning protocol for communication service providers, encompassing social media platforms and instant messaging applications, which facilitate the exchange of textual, auditory, photographic, and video content inclusive of all user data. The eIDAS 2.0 proposal, aimed at establishing a secure framework for trust services within the EU, has raised concerns due to recent undisclosed alterations made during the legislative process. These changes, allowing Member States to access encrypted data, raise alarming implications for mass surveillance. Collaborating with esteemed scientists and NGOs, an open letter has been crafted to address these critical risks and propose concrete solutions to ensure enhanced privacy protections in the eIDAS 2.0 framework. This letter meticulously outlines the substantial risks associated with the eIDAS 2.0 proposal and offers concrete suggestions for mitigating these issues. The letter is here: https://nce.mpi-sp.org/index.php/s/cG88cptFdaDNyRr As an individual deeply invested in digital? privacy and security, I find myself increasingly apprehensive about the implications of the eIDAS 2.0 proposal. While the initial intent was to establish a fortified legal framework for trust services within the EU, recent undisclosed alterations have raised significant concerns. One of the most troubling aspects is the provision granting Member States the authority to insert their keys into browsers, enabling the interception of encrypted traffic. This opens the door to potential mass surveillance, infringing upon the fundamental right to privacy. Additionally, the restrictions on security checks for encryption keys, limited by ETSI, pose a potential roadblock to the development of innovative, higher-level protective measures. Furthermore, the proposal's commendable effort to create a digital wallet for mobile identity is marred by a critical oversight. Citizens should have the option to employ anonymous credentials or pseudonyms to shield their online interactions. Unfortunately, the current draft makes the implementation of unlinkability optional, potentially subjecting citizens privacy to the discretion of the Member State with the weakest safeguards. These concerns are not merely speculative, but rooted in the need to protect individual liberties in an increasingly interconnected digital landscape. It is imperative that we prioritize privacy rights and work towards a balanced framework that ensures the security of trust services without compromising personal freedoms. In addition, most artificial intelligence systems are inherently flawed, rendering them susceptible to potential misuse under the law. Governments, under the pretext of combating child exploitation, can scan the data of a majority of users, thereby infringing upon fundamental human rights. This grants governments the power to surveil and exert control over any citizen at their discretion. Perhaps we can discuss what we might accomplish together. Regards?

There is only one question - who is to be master? - that is all ( Humpty Dumpty ) Cypherpunks are all about privacy for the poor and transparency for the powerful.? Amirite? The possibility of anonymous speech, and publication is vital for an open society and genuine freedom of speech. " Speech ? is also defined as computer code.in US law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernstein_v._United_States Apple cited Bernstein v. US in its refusal to hack the San Bernardino shooter?s iPhone, saying that they could not be compelled to ?speak? (write code) The general sentiment of mankind is that a man who will not fight for himself, when he has the means of doing so, is not worth being fought for by others, and this sentiment is just. For a man who does not value freedom for himself will never value it for others, or put himself to any inconvenience to gain it for others. Such a man, the world says, may lie down until he has sense enough to stand up. It is useless and cruel to put a man on his legs, if the next moment his head is to be brought against a curbstone. Advocates for KYC/ AML sound like they will die in the ditch for any govts right to suppress us code-talkers.? Perhaps its time we indulged them.? The same rotten creepy criminals want to attack our rights of association and disassociation via mixmasters ( " Everyone a remailer " ) They would drag us all back to the dark ages.? Naturally, they have all earned killing. " Government is best which governs least"; and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which also I believe??That government is best which governs not at all? Thoreau " . . . governance should be decentralized? The real question is how decentralized governance should be applied in every particular case." https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/11/35733564/blockchain-revolution-how-to-achieve-scalability-decentralization-and-regulatory-clarity?utm_campaign=coingecko&utm_source=coingecko&utm_medium=coingecko&utm_content=coingecko&utm_term=coingecko Reposts from corpse-media sources would smell as sweet - but not for much longer ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2023 10:22:47 -0500 From: Gunnar Larson To: cypherpunks@cpunks.org Subject: Fwd: Mayor Eric Adams NYCCoin Touting Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Gunnar Larson Date: Fri, Mar 10, 2023, 4:00 PM Subject: Mayor Eric Adams NYCCoin Touting To: Cc: , Harris, Adrienne A (DFS) < Adrienne.Harris@dfs.ny.gov> Please find the attached memo with reference footnotes. -- March 10, 2023 BY ELECTRONIC MAIL Ms. Camille Joseph Varlack Office of the Mayor of New York City City Hall Park, 260 Broadway New York, NY 10007 United States PressOffice@CityHall.NYC.gov Re: Mayor Eric Adams NYCCoin Touting Dear Ms. Joseph Varlack: Today?s memo is to kindly submit xNY.io - Bank.org's inquiry into Mayor Eric Adams' promotion of NYCCoin. 1. The federal securities laws are clear that any celebrity or individual who promotes digital assets must disclose the nature, source and amount of compensation they received in exchange for the promotion. 2. As a matter of ethics, risk and compliance associated with digital asset innovation, xNY.io asks if NYCCoin promotion by the Mayor of New York City damaged the market for the xNY digital asset (by, for example, devaluing it through parody or sealed via embossed criticism). 3. xNY.io - Bank.org concerns made above have evidentiary support to interlocking director and officer conflicts recognized by the Department of Justice as potential threats that stifle individual and corporate freedom. Ms. Joseph Varlack, as a matter relating to working at one of the world's most ethical companies, famous for risk management and corporate governance, and as an internationally recognized Blockchain Scholar, I must adhere to federal securities laws. - As such, I classify Mayor Adams as an individual who promoted the digital asset NYCCoin and must disclose the nature, scope, and amount of compensation associated. A failure to disclose this information may violate the anti-touting provisions of the federal securities laws. Mayor Adams' making these endorsements may also be liable for potential violations of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws, for participating in an unregistered offer and sale of securities, and for acting as unregistered brokers. xNY.io - Bank.org respectfully requests the Office of the Mayor of New York City to respond to this request by Wednesday March, 15 2023 by Noon EST.
