So interesting and at the same time somewhat sad to see how hopeful cypherpunks were regarding the prospects of privacy. Back in 1995 it seemed like privacy was getting momentum and most people would naturally embrace privacy oriented tools.
"I conclude that privacy marketing will be an important value-add for
Internet commerce. It will be a terrific way to gain market share at
the expense of the competition -- or to lose much of your market share,
if you find yourself on the wrong end of a privacy campaign." – Nick Szabo
29 years later it's obvious that the fight for privacy is never-ending. Luckily there is an intolerant minority of privacy advocates that stands behind its principles and works hard on creating and popularizing privacy tools.
Embrace privacy!
