This is a general view on the topic. I think open-source isn’t enough, we need also governance for the software we use, and create small pockets of freedom.
All feedback is welcome.

I’d be interested in your take on NymVPN. Governence is still a bit opaque but they do provide a novel way to incentivise operators to join the network.
Perhaps in the future we could see a ride share app powered in this way. Operators and drivers paid by an algorithm based on work done. Funded by users paying with a specific coin. With the interchangeability of cryptocoin it wouldn’t matter if there are competing projects. The governance question still remains though.
I have never heard of NymVPN… and I’m impressed (I’m using a similar type of VPN), it’s interesting to see that more and more people are moving to the decentralized networks.
The crypto acceptance if a wierd point, since crypto for me is always a scam until it’s not. So the moment I saw the crypto thing I was like: “ohhh nice, another scam…”, but it’s closer to the freedom of nation option instead of the scam attempt.
But this is still a centralized thing, what I want is the Onion routing, but people invested in this should have a better degree of control, instead of pure anonymous users. But this is the tug of war in this (privacy vs control), the more private it is, the less control you have over it, and, to be honest I don’t know which point would be the best in this scale.
