       @aral @Mer__edith I’m sure you both know “From Crossbows to Cryptography,” an OG essay on the topic dating back to 1987:https://cdn.nakamotoinstitute.org/docs/from-crossbows-to-cryptography.pdfIt is very dated, and I’m not a huge fan of military metaphors, but the underlying theme of privacy undermining authoritarianism seems just as relevant today as then.
