The Manifesto of Freedom in the Digital Age
We live in an age where power centralizes itself through surveillance, coercion, and control. Yet, we also live in an age of unprecedented tools like cryptography, open networks, p2p systems that allow us to resist and reclaim autonomy.
Our Core Principles
Cypherpunk Spirit
Code is speech. Strong cryptography and privacy-preserving technologies are essential weapons in the defense of liberty. We write code not as an academic exercise, but as an act of resistance.
Privacy as a Human Right
Privacy is not secrecy, it is the power to choose what to reveal and to whom. Without privacy, there can be no true freedom of thought, speech, or association.
Libertarian Ethos
We oppose the initiation of force in all its forms. Every individual has sovereignty over their own body, mind, and property. The state, with its monopoly on violence, stands as the greatest violator of liberty.
Objectivist Clarity
Reality exists independent of wishes. Reason is our only tool of knowledge. Each individual has the moral right to pursue their own happiness, free from coercion.
Open Source Collaboration
Open code and transparent systems empower individuals, build trust, and decentralize power. We create, share, and improve freely, so that knowledge cannot be monopolized.
Voluntarism in Action
All human interaction should be based on voluntary consent. Authority is legitimate only when chosen, never imposed.
Agorism as Strategy
We engage in peaceful counter-economics, building parallel systems that bypass centralized institutions. We trade, share, and innovate outside their grasp, making the old order obsolete.
Our Path Forward
We will:
Build privacy-first technologies.
Share knowledge freely, rejecting closed monopolies.
Withdraw our consent from coercive systems.
Create networks of trust, trade, and mutual aid beyond borders.
Defend free expression and encryption as fundamental rights.
Live by reason, not force.
Strengthen the underground economy of freedom.
We do not ask for permission.
We do not wait for rulers to free us.
We build the tools, the markets, and the culture of liberty ourselves.
The revolution is voluntary. The revolution is encrypted. The revolution is now.
