Joining the Fight Against Digital Authoritarianism and Financial Repression

An interesting freedom event is approaching this first week of June. This conference is hosted by the Oslo Freedom Forum, a New York-based Human Rights Foundation. This gathering aims to highlight the state of human rights in the world in the context of rising digital authoritarianism and the threat to financial privacy.

The group views the censorship-resistant character of Bitcoin as a way to support liberty and empower activists against tyranny. This sounds like Hive to me. The “financial freedom” theme scheduled for June 5th will be discussed with other pressing issues like financial repression, CBDCs, and increasing financial surveillance. It was also mentioned in the article that a clear indication of financial repression is the FBI's stance on non-KYC crypto services. Despite the claim to protect crypto users, the real intention here is to impose financial surveillance, which poses a significant threat to digital privacy and freedom.
