Diving into the culture of the Web3 privacy industry
If privacy is a human right, then we need to protect it.
Privacy advocates worldwide are coming together to discuss how to mainstream privacy within the Web3 industry. So it will become a cultural phenomenon embodying both decentralisation & anti-surveillance capitalism practices.
The conference complements the research projects Web3Privacy Now and was created by joining forces with the production team of the privacy hackathon ETHBrno.
Part of Prague Blockchain Week 2023.
2023 will be a year of privacy regulations. Privacy coins will be banned, mixer's team become anon etc. How do we defend our rights for privacy?
Majority of privacy services are tech oriented. It's hard to use them among non-technical people. What should industry do help people onboard into privacy with ease?
How privacy-enhancing tools could protect DAOs working within non-democratic countries.
Decentralised identity is the key to Web3, but at the same time to KYC & AML. Ethical way of building DID without embedded surveillence logic.
Full-Stack Privacy is achievable if we ensivion one. Combining both on-chain & off-chain privacy.
We need resilient privacy-preserving, p2p communication layers for Web3, that allows free and uncensored human-to-human, machine-to-machine or hybrid communication.
For solarpunk to succeed it must integrate the lunarpunk unconscious. The only hope for solarpunk is to go dark. Do you agree?
There are many different cryptography technics for privacy preservation. How to balance them all & avoid 1-tool chokepoint?
Introduction of the privacy scoring mechanism to help non-tech people understand security level of the solution
Why are privacy-blockchain socials so toxic? How could we stop hating each other & work together
