Hello everyone,
After a discussion on [email protected] ( https://feddit.org/post/6950586 ), a few people interested in privacy decided to reopen [email protected] as an alternative to [email protected] .
It’s also nice to have a privacy community on an instance that can be accessed via VPNs.
Feel free to join us there!
Hello @[email protected] @[email protected], could you please clarify?
From what I understood, promoting privacy services which allow to pay in crypto is OK, but not to promote cryptocurrencies themselves?
My core complaint still stands, digital fungible money is part of the privacy conversation. Especially threat modeling for people.
Personally it’s okay with me. Feel free to have a look at the previous thread (https://feddit.org/post/6950586), but long story short
Lemmy.dbzer0 has a very good record of stability and management. If we need to discuss crypto in a dedicated discussion, why not. To be fair, I expect some backlash of any pro-crypto discussions in a general privacy community anyway.
I’m ok with people promoting services which accept cryptocurrencies (hell, Lemmy itself accepts crypto donations). However promoting cryptocurrencies itself is a no-no in our instance.
Also: Crypto is a not private. The blockchain is public.
Not necessarily true for all ledgers, such as monero.
