For this episode I spoke with Harry Halpin (@harryhalpin), open internet advocate, professor, internet researcher, and the current CEO of Nym. Nym is a project trying to build a global privacy commons for the internet using mix nets, crypto, and anonymous credentials.
During the interview we talk about the current issues with privacy on the internet today, how crypto changes the game for creating privacy over the internet, and why many of the anti-crypto critiques are wrong and non-Marxist even. We also talk about how Nym works, how it differs from Tor, and defensive vs offensive technology.
