Hackers Congress HCPP17 Amir Taaki

on YouTube ↗01h 23m

" summary

Claims a plan to build an ideological tech corps: a training academy in Barcelona to produce politicized hackers, plus immediate work on free software, telecoms and Bitcoin projects. Notes concrete precedents and failures: Ethereum raises $150M crowdfunding then suffers a hack that lost over $50M, Palantir connects government databases, and Rojava’s autonomous region is cited with ~5 million people as a live laboratory. Emphasis is strategic: ideas, organization and numbers, not abstract tech evangelism.
