Monero's New Upgrade will Radically Kill Most Attack Vectors.

But... the community still suffers from "Just My One Thing" Disease. And this coming full chain membership proof upgrade won't change this.

Monero is money. It's not an operating system. It's not a CDN. It's not a social network. It's not an encrypted messenger.

You know, the Bull Dies in Spanish Bullfighting, because it's so focused on the Red Silk, that it misses the sword.

In "Just My One Thing", our team points out the logical flaws of supposed privacy, political, and free speech groups, being so narrowly focused on promoting ONLY their own cause.. that they miss the bigger picture, and it becomes self-defeating..

This 10-minute podcast episode covers: Failed Bitcoin Maxis, Monero, Linux, Nostr, Libertarians, Journalists, & more..

In the EU, they are voting on Chat Control now. This is deciding if they'll make encrypted chats illegal. This has huge effects for VPNs & Monero.

In the US, Chinese hackers have infiltrated the phone lines, And the FBI is telling ordinary Americans to encrypt their chats.

Everyone in the EU should be pushing their politicians on this issue, as it definitely affects Monero in the EU.

XMR surges past $200. Up 15% today!

But I argue that Monero is worth more than the KYC exchanges say. And I'm looking to prove that by offering great discounts with solid legal systems.

Google's Official Store just ENDED their Black Friday sale, They now charge $799 for a new Pixel 9

But Simplified Privacy goes even lower: just $580 (in XMR)

You pick: still sealed in the box or flash GrapheneOS Black, White, or Wintergreen, 128G storage, Google's 1-year warranty,

With XMR up so much, and our price down so low, This is a slam dunk win for you.

On XMRBazaar: https://xmrbazaar.com/listing/JFHe/

Plus PGP-backed receipt against our deposit, https://simplifiedprivacy.com/how-pgp-insurance/index.html

We're trying to increase the use of Monero, and attract more people to XMRBazaar by offering such great discounts on brand-new and high-demand electronics. And through the use of Monero arbitration legal systems, increase trust in the Bazaar.

When you connect to cellphone towers: You’re using the modem which has an IMEI identification number. Using a DeGoogled phone and a VPN does NOT change this from revealing info about the hardware TO the TOWER, such as where it was bought. And who bought it.

If you buy it in Monero, that solves the problem. But other DeGoogled providers charge more, while as we charge LESS:

Official Google Store: $799

Simplified Privacy: $665

YOU PICK: We Flash GrapheneOS OR you can get it still sealed in the box.

PIXEL 9 BRAND NEW STILL SEALED IN THE BOX 1 YEAR WARRANTY

Guys, Get on Nostr, there's a growing Monero community trolling Bitcoin maxis,

Garnet is a new nostr client to tip XMR,

for example: as Italy Raises Capital Gains Tax on Bitcoin from 26% to 42%:

SimpleX is under attack by the magazine Wired,

But what surprises me is the reaction of the developer Evgeny Poberezkin,

SPECIAL SALE: As Monero is delisted from Kraken (for the EU),

Simplified Privacy jumps into the fray, to buy XMR, by selling discounted hardware & services

We’re offering $10 off your Phone or VPS combo purchase, to offer stability to the market and defy oppression.

First, if new exchanges aren't listing it, then basic logic would tell us that there's only so many times they can delist XMR to cause a price-propaganda event, and eventually the bad news is priced in. So just hold and ignore it for a week.

And the Kraken insiders sold prior to the announcement, that’s why XMR fell more than other coins in the general market. So if you sell now, you’re essentially letting them urinate on your wallet and manipulate your emotions.

Second, to prove my first point, if you don't want to hold your XMR, I will accept it right now today for a Phone or Email setups at a discount. You want to get rid of it? Come on down, and get a completely off-the-radar DeGoogled Pixel or an awesome VPS setup to be self-sovereign with all your communications (email, xmpp, docs, ect)

The invasion of your privacy is only first beginning, if you do nothing and sit by, it’s only getting worse. Stop just liking memes and complaining, and start taking action.

I’m here to hold your hand through the process,

Elon Musk censors for Brazil, This is a reverse of his previous stance, with chilling effects

The FBI visits the founder of Odysee over his Tweets

Arweave up 17% on Double Censorship News,

But since Arweave is NOT private, this highlights Monero's use-case for swaps:

And highlights the need to get Monero official accounts and the community off twitter, and onto Nostr and Bastyon.

Chrome devs rolled out a new digital ID feature. This corrupt power grab is an attempt to legitimatize Google being the overseer of all identification through their browser and mobile platform:

I question the legitimacy of Google to keep us safe, when their Worksheets are being rampantly abused by hackers: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/google-sheets/hacked.html

Today Monero is listed as a front-page trending coin on Coinmarketcap

But it isn't rising that much ($148.81 from the low of $137), it's just that it didn't collapse with coins primarily traded on centralized exchanges. Monero's attitude of "use it" over hodl & leverage keeps it stable.

And special to this situation, as I've written about earlier, this entire collapse is triggered by Japanese yen carry trades. Monero's history of being banned from the Japanese exchanges, makes it so that very few people long XMR/JPY on leverage

SimpleX will be integrating payments to the server operators to provide incentives to decentralize the network. He’s using a voucher blockchain system, but that’s what the customer gets. The question is what the customer pays.

Can the customer pay in Monero included in the self-host default packages, or will operators have to provide their own XMR infrastructure? This is a big deal. These are the types of questions you can ask directly at tomorrow (or tonight if you live in asia)’s event.

The SimpleX dev is dropping by Simplified Privacy’s chat to answer community questions. Consider showing up to show Monero love and sway his mind to natively support it with his vendor package bundles.
