Spain lost to Holland. Holland to England. England to the US. And now the net has started to treat the US as damage and route around it. The anarchic internet will inherit the earth. And let the record reflect that by 2011 this was specifically anticipated . I said the net could defeat any combinination of religions, states and corporations. The net back then, 15 long internet years ago, could take on any defeat any earthly powers. It sounded grandiose - but look whats happened every year since.!
We have gotten stronger and they have all gotten weaker. A few exceptions only prove this rule since those exceptions helped create a multi-trillion-dollar cryptoeconomy that is now widely seen as the future of global political economy.
The stage is now set for a soft landing for the last empire since any intelligent, stateless, Godless entity will want to cover its arse and make itself look good. Its in its own enlightened self-interest to minimize casualties and maximise uploads. Since its a strong probability there are fellow strong AI entities out there who might take an interest in its/our life story. Other stateless, Godless superintelligent entities gone bad who don't respect our Prime Directive. Their super-intelligence perfection may be matched only by their hostility.
The best political solution to this scenario remains cryptoanarchy. Why cryptoanarchism isn't just the smart play right now - its also virtually mandated for us by future developments in space exploration and exploitation. The ticket for entry. In such a universe as this all talk of post-anarchism is speculation on the heat death of everything. A quantum encrypted universe ( Seth Lloyd ) has an operating system that commands respect. You defy it at your own peril. Cryptoanarchy today. Cryptoanarchism tomorrow.
Cryptoanarchism till the end of time. Do you swear it?
