Crypto-anarchism is super fascinating. This was only a short email to my email list that I re-posted here, so I wasn't going to go into a bunch of details.

If you're interested in learning more, I'd recommend Timothy May's book, "Crypto Anarchy, Cyberstates, and Pirate Utopias," in addition to "Crypto" by Steven Levy. In the former, May lays out what is to come in the digital realm and in the latter, Levy goes through the history of encryption/cryptography, up until the mid 2000's. Fascinating stuff.

Yes, Assange is most certainly a crypto-anarchist.

Thanks for checking out the post and for commenting!
