If a government was meant to serve the people, rather than government officials & special interests, none of its documents would ever be classified. Every government document, email & phone call would have to be completely open to all citizens.

Crypto is about digital property rights. By default, you should own your social media account. A platform that can seize it without due process is like a bank that can seize your money at will. Blockchains today protect against the latter, and tomorrow against the former.

Entrepreneurship has been glorified and many people believe it’s easier to start and build a company than work for one.
