Curious how to check which websites are censored around the world? Use @OpenObservatory probe or open data at ooni.org Or come to our Neo-cypherpunk Congress in Berlin - connect with @hellais: s26ber.web3privacy.info

Time for a stress-test: why are we all here?! Welcome, speaker working for years in privacy tech from mixnet to decentralised VPN: @SCBuergel x @gnosis_ & @hoprnet "CROPS (censorship resistance, open source, privacy, and security) is the counter-mandate to extractive casino tech - a return to why any of us got here to begin with. Without CROPS, there's no durable yield. Not for society, not for crypto". Neo-cypherpunk way [14th June, Berlin]: s26ber.web3privacy.info

New Academy talk w Pavel Zoneff (@torproject) on everyday actions, digital disobedience, and building a more decentralized internet. Full interview link in comments ↓

We have published Cypherpunk Retreat case study! done by @web3privacy and @protocollabs With growing regulatory pressures, centralised control over communication and financial systems, and the rapid evolution of AI and surveillance technologies, we are at a crossroads. The coming years represent one of our last windows to build and use secure and privacy-preserving technologies before the current paradigm solidifies for a decade or more. The challenge is clear: secure global communications cannot depend on incremental adoption by existing systems. We need a fundamental shift in internet infrastructure, developed and deployed by builders who prioritize privacy and censorship resistance at the protocol level. So in collaboration with @protocollabs we decided to put together a retreat for those, who wants to put their skills to use.

We are still talking and buzzing about the memories and stories from ECC2 as well as Ethereum Privacy Stack, trying to navigate everything. If you have anything to share, please do so. It means so much. But let's get to the news. Congrats @PrivacyEthereum and their OpenAC - check it out. Then learn about Matrix abandoning Slack by @CyberInsidercom, what is email spoofing by @ProtonPrivacy or what can @GrapheneOS exiting France means for encryption or @WIRED guide to OpSec for teens.

Happy monday aka the Web3Privacy Now newsletter day! This week has been again pretty busy with Ethereum Cypherpunk Congres 2 and @EfDevcon happening. Many new tools had dropped or been announced, helping to enhance privacy and make it better and more accessible for eveyone. But also some things changed for worse, so it is good to keep that on our radar. @DarkFiSquad launched their DarkIRC app and @Brave enabled cryptographically verifiable privacy and transparency using TEEs. X platform started show where its users made their accounts from and want to address the VPN usage as well in near future, @GrapheneOS faces another allegations by French media for enabling privacy to criminals and @EFF sues Department of Justice for forcing tech platforms to takedown apps helping to document activities of ICE. So some bad things happening as well as great thing happening, let's not fall into doom-and-gloom mindset and cherish the privacy and beautiful fight we can lead as the honorable neo-cypherpunk are. What is the neo-cypherpunk you ask? Check our academy's course then. News from @404mediaco, @cyberinsidercom, @wired, @EFF, @socialmedia2day, @techcrunch and more. Podcasts and online events by @unchained_pod, @zeroknowledgefm or @EFF. IRL events featuring @websecacademy, @chaosupdates, @logos_network, @rightscon by @accessnow or @ETHPrague. news.web3privacy.info/2025-48/ Newsletter curated by @xgotchmax
