This week in privacy, Princesses can afford privacy but not everyone can afford the right to be forgotten. This article was from May but I discovered it this week, killing cookies can save journalism.
This week in crypto, Mexico is booming. Tether is moving. From July but I discovered it this week (h/tAndre), Mario Laul writes a great summary of FOSS governance models and how we can apply them to blockchain. If you’re bored this weekend, go play in a Dark Forest. That’s all for now, have a great weekend y’all.
