How to get it safely? KYC vs peer-to-peer markets?

Very likely you know most of the content in this podcast, however, you may find it interesting to hear about the "Paradox of Monero"

Monero's New Upgrade will Radically Kill Most Attack Vectors.

But... the community still suffers from "Just My One Thing" Disease. And this coming full chain membership proof upgrade won't change this.

Monero is money. It's not an operating system. It's not a CDN. It's not a social network. It's not an encrypted messenger.

You know, the Bull Dies in Spanish Bullfighting, because it's so focused on the Red Silk, that it misses the sword.

In "Just My One Thing", our team points out the logical flaws of supposed privacy, political, and free speech groups, being so narrowly focused on promoting ONLY their own cause.. that they miss the bigger picture, and it becomes self-defeating..

This 10-minute podcast episode covers: Failed Bitcoin Maxis, Monero, Linux, Nostr, Libertarians, Journalists, & more..

In the EU, they are voting on Chat Control now. This is deciding if they'll make encrypted chats illegal. This has huge effects for VPNs & Monero.

In the US, Chinese hackers have infiltrated the phone lines, And the FBI is telling ordinary Americans to encrypt their chats.

Everyone in the EU should be pushing their politicians on this issue, as it definitely affects Monero in the EU.

XMR surges past $200. Up 15% today!

But I argue that Monero is worth more than the KYC exchanges say. And I'm looking to prove that by offering great discounts with solid legal systems.

Google's Official Store just ENDED their Black Friday sale, They now charge $799 for a new Pixel 9

But Simplified Privacy goes even lower: just $580 (in XMR)

You pick: still sealed in the box or flash GrapheneOS Black, White, or Wintergreen, 128G storage, Google's 1-year warranty,

With XMR up so much, and our price down so low, This is a slam dunk win for you.

Plus PGP-backed receipt against our deposit, https://simplifiedprivacy.com/how-pgp-insurance/index.html

We're trying to increase the use of Monero, and attract more people to XMRBazaar by offering such great discounts on brand-new and high-demand electronics. And through the use of Monero arbitration legal systems, increase trust in the Bazaar.

When you connect to cellphone towers: You’re using the modem which has an IMEI identification number. Using a DeGoogled phone and a VPN does NOT change this from revealing info about the hardware TO the TOWER, such as where it was bought. And who bought it.

If you buy it in Monero, that solves the problem. But other DeGoogled providers charge more, while as we charge LESS:

Official Google Store: $799

Simplified Privacy: $665

YOU PICK: We Flash GrapheneOS OR you can get it still sealed in the box.

Guys, Get on Nostr, there's a growing Monero community trolling Bitcoin maxis,

SimpleX is under attack by the magazine Wired,

But what surprises me is the reaction of the developer Evgeny Poberezkin,

SPECIAL SALE: As Monero is delisted from Kraken (for the EU),

Simplified Privacy jumps into the fray, to buy XMR, by selling discounted hardware & services

We’re offering $10 off your Phone or VPS combo purchase, to offer stability to the market and defy oppression.

First, if new exchanges aren't listing it, then basic logic would tell us that there's only so many times they can delist XMR to cause a price-propaganda event, and eventually the bad news is priced in. So just hold and ignore it for a week.

And the Kraken insiders sold prior to the announcement, that’s why XMR fell more than other coins in the general market. So if you sell now, you’re essentially letting them urinate on your wallet and manipulate your emotions.

Second, to prove my first point, if you don't want to hold your XMR, I will accept it right now today for a Phone or Email setups at a discount. You want to get rid of it? Come on down, and get a completely off-the-radar DeGoogled Pixel or an a

And highlights the need to get Monero official accounts and the community off twitter, and onto Nostr and Bastyon.

Chrome devs rolled out a new digital ID feature. This corrupt power grab is an attempt to legitimatize Google being the overseer of all identification through their browser and mobile platform:

Today Monero is listed as a front-page trending coin on Coinmarketcap

But it isn't rising that much ($148.81 from the low of $137), it's just that it didn't collapse with coins primarily traded on centralized exchanges. Monero's attitude of "use it" over hodl & leverage keeps it stable.

And special to this situation, as I've written about earlier, this entire collapse is triggered by Japanese yen carry trades. Monero's history of being banned from the Japanese exchanges, makes it so that very few people long XMR/JPY on leverage

SimpleX will be integrating payments to the server operators to provide incentives to decentralize the network. He’s using a voucher blockchain system, but that’s what the customer gets. The question is what the customer pays.

Can the customer pay in Monero included in the self-host default packages, or will operators have to provide their own XMR infrastructure? This is a big deal. These are the types of questions you can ask directly at tomorrow (or tonight if you live in asia)’s event.

The SimpleX dev is dropping by Simplified Privacy’s chat to answer community questions. Consider showing up to show Monero love and sway his mind to natively support it with his vendor package bundles.

How can we get the party started for a Monero social media site to bond a couple of anonymous bros?

Well maybe Big Tech bashing, but with an educational twist.

This site LifeHacker has half-hearted criticism of Google, but the site itself uses Google analytics and the author uses Gmail. Other than the obvious, we turn it into an educational opportunity to have members of the community tell him all the choices there are to DeGoogle your life.

Who knows? It would be pretty cool if we got a response from the author, and it mentioned Monero.

Let’s face it, our way of life is under attack. The exchanges delist us. Dubai bans us. EU restricts. Others countries we wonder. Nostr Bitcoin Maxis try to haze us. Ethereum VC funded devs treat us like pariahs. Even if you want to act tough and curse me out, you know it’s true that we live in some level of fear.

a) To make Monero real world money, you need adoption from everyday people. b) Everyday people don’t care about learning new tech, they learn it from influencers. c) To win over influencers, we need to appeal to what they care about, which is not privacy. They care about censorship, being deplatformed, and being demonetized.

Russell Brand demonetized. Glenn Beck pulled from Apple podcasts. America’s front line doctors banned from how many platforms? These are just some well-known examples, but I know dozens of mid-level political guys rug pulled by Big Tech. If we shift the conversation away from Monero is darknet markets, and turn it to undeniably monetized fre

Some in the Monero groups here are not Libertarian, and are more interested in privacy/tech in general. That’s fine. But Macro level politics are important to Monero... Because Reto/Haveno is a response to those politics.

The Libertarian Convention went down and there were some developments, including picking a nominee and Trump speaking. There are big political impacts of Trump talking at LP because he is being forced to be more pro-crypto and anti-CBDC to try to sway Libertarian voters. The fact that a mainstream candidate is even showing up to the table is big. “Free Ross” signs went up directly in front of the conservative cameras like Right Side Broadcasting, and Trump did make concessions on Ross

Now is Trump actually pure? No. Is the LP nominee pure? Actually, No.

New attack on VPNs!

There is a new critical VPN vulnerability from Leviathan Security group, which they call “TunnelVision”. It allows the ISP or local router to see your VPN traffic by abusing the routing options:
