Dave Cullen, of Computing Forever (in Ireland?) interviews Bill Ottman in a half-hour
video “Overcoming Censorship: The Rise of Alt-Tech” So I’ll call this a movie (not a coma).
The speakers review the Patreon situation (that exploded Dec.
6 with the banning of Sargon of Akkad) and note that Patreon’s behavior is

up with Stripes); yet Patreon cannot be transparent in how it is influenced. The idea of "manifest observable behavior" was reneged on.
They also discussed how these big companies became ideological

their own growth – hence they have recently been tied to the Democratic Party,
not the old Reagan Republicanism. They’re
left with trying to blackball those whose association seem to tie them to
populism, which is indeed dangerous.

been around for years (but remember Sean Fanning’s Napster). Ohio, he said, accepts state taxes in cryptocurrency.
Yet there have been some issues, as when Coinbase banned the personal account of Gab’s
