 This would actually make a good article.  I think we will do one comparing us vs Bazzell.

Bazzell is very good.  It's a shame he stopped doing podcasts.  Our content is a little more anti-authority, pro-crypto, and less trusting of low-grade consumer privacy.  We also focus on censorship and agorism, which are absent from Bazzell's routine.

For example Bazzell pushes protonmail, we push self-host.
Bazzell pushes privacy.com cards, and we reject fiat for crypto only.
Bazzell pushes registration with nomad state DMVs, we push 2nd passports.
Bazzell pushes VoIP via Twillio.  We like Twillio VoIP, but not directly, and disagree with him to not use a 3rd party vendor to use crypto.

Regarding Bazzell's pfSense, this was a good idea up until pfSense switched licenses and is shifting away from FOSS.  Now you want to use OPNsense.  But this happened after Bazzell's books, so he gets no blame.
