It occurs to me that a solution to offshore-banking and the consequential lack of tax-revenue and hampered national sovereignties, is somewhat counter-intuitive: a restriction/regulation of encryption, on which the offshore-industry depends. It seems we need to push for a universal openness/access to all information at the lesser expense of an older assumption of personal-liberties... or else, only the rich will remain increasingly powerful and anonymous. --- # distributed via nettime-l : no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a closed moderated mailinglist for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@desk.nl and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # URL: http://www.desk.nl/~nettime/ contact: nettime-owner@desk.nl
