Web3Privacy NowCan Privacy Be a Public Good (and Still Survive)?
“Trying to raise money for privacy is like selling umbrellas in a drought. You know the rain’s coming, but no one wants to invest until they’re already soaked.”Last week, a collection of builders, donors, and philosophical troublemakers gathered in a virtual bar known as X Spaces to discuss the noble and bewildering task of funding privacy in a world that keeps confusing it with invisibility. With Gavin Birch (Luminara, Namada), Peter Van Valkenburgh (Coin Center), Ben West (Pretty Good OSINT...
Web3Privacy NowPrivacy as Freedom of Behavior
What is privacy?What is privacy, really? I’ve been trying to answer that question for years. As someone who’s worked in communications for 15 years, and now leads the Web3Privacy Now Academy, my job has been to explain complex ideas—often deeply technical ones—to people in a way that makes sense. And yet, even after years inside the privacy space, I still struggle to explain what privacy is in a way that lands. Not just factually, but emotionally. When I talk to people outside the space, I of...

This is the first of a series of articles covering the results of the #2023privacyproof poll: final longlist announcement before publishing shortlist.
Explore the selection of the pro-privacy projects made by 100+ privacy enthusiasts, developers, researchers, cryptographers, cypherpunks, and community builders from the DarkFi, Nym, Swarm, Logos, HOPR, Railgun_, Circles UBI, Rotki, Puzzle, Espresso Systems & many other organisations.
Note: #2023privacyproof is an educational & explorational activity dedicated to raising awareness & interest in privacy x web3: projects, news, papers & anti-privacy doxxers. Do DYOR before using any privacy tech.
#2023privacyproof showed great diversity within the privacy stack covering from IMEI-privacy to stealth addresses on Ethereum.
In mid-December 2023 we started asking privacy enthusiasts to share their personal favourite pro-privacy projects, news, innovation & anti-privacy doxxers.
The majority of the contributions are public & can be found on Twitter/X: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 etc. While some contributors wanted to remain anon.
Results were aggregated into a sheet (which will be shared publicly later on).
The highest “votes” will define the shortlist of the key pro-privacy tech defined by the community.
Note: we asked participants to avoid mentioning affiliated projects, so the poll would be more accurate.
The next article featuring “Key news & events” (longlist) of 2023 will be published tomorrow.
