ABOUT > PURPOSE
In an era marked by an accelerated rise in authoritarianism, surveillance, and censorship in most Western countries, the purpose of this website is to provide non-experts with free, simple guides (mostly step-by-step video-guides) structured into two courses:
Course 1 focuses on the basics of private/secure computing.
Course 2 concentrates on the basics of private/secure Bitcoining.
An additional section lists some useful privacy apps.
Another section attempts to distill in just a few lines the fundamental theoretical principles of freedom and economics that are crucial for privacy and Bitcoin.
The various sections will be updated regularly, and over time, additional content will be included.
Course 2 should be undertaken after completing Course 1, as it will presume that the reader is already familiar with all the tools and techniques presented in Course 1. For each chapter, it will be assumed that the reader has already mastered the content of all preceding chapters.
The specific approach to private/secure computing and Bitcoining outlined here is not the only possible one, nor necessarily the best, nor does it aim to be exhaustive (see disclaimer). Particularly for Bitcoin use, we recommend the following websites for a more professional, in-depth study:
However, the approach described here integrates secure Bitcoining with secure computing. While emphasizing simplicity, it still provides a robust level of privacy/security and includes step-by-step video guides. Individuals not familiar with them, can significantly benefit from learning the practices and tools described here.
Membership (which is individually and manually approved) is anonymous and free. However, it is reserved for libertarians and requires successfully completing a small Proof of Work: see here for more information.
If one day this website will have helped even one single person to better defend his privacy and security, to better manage his bitcoins, and to understand the basic theoretical structure of freedom and economics, it will have served its purpose.
