United in privacy.
A huge thank you to the entire teams at @protocollabs.bsky.social , @web3privacy.info , Cosmik for their outstanding work in doing what surveillance capitalism cannot:
bringing people together.
🧩 Lasting impact — for the whole ecosystem.
The Cypherpunk Retreat (cypherpunk.camp) laid the groundwork for long-term collaboration.
The impact of these interactions will echo for years — through partnerships, shared standards, joint projects, and ongoing mutual support.
What stood out most? The genuine sense of purpose.
Everyone showed up not just to participate, but to freely share their expertise in service of a greater cause.
🧩 Same values, diverse approaches — truly productive.
Across 30+ sessions, changemakers with a clear-eyed understanding of the digital age’s challenges — and the determination to act — came together to co-create real solutions.
file sharing innovators ( @ipfs.tech , @fil.org ), and many more freedom tech advocates joined the conversation.
Together. Beyond tribalism (web3, web2, competition)
came together alongside voices from electronic voting ( @vocdoni.io ), vpn & mixnets, encrypted messaging ( @tessa.germnetwork.com , @germnetwork.com , @matrix.org ), browser, @torproject.org developers, researchers, radio comms specialist, lawyers...
Hacktivists ( @redshiftzero.bsky.social @jaromil.bsky.social @freedom.press ), cryptographers, civil society advocates ( @robin.berjon.com , @alexisroussel.bsky.social ), infrastructure experts ( @juanbenet.bsky.social , @scbuergel.bsky.social )
CYPHERPUNK RETREAT 2025 Recap
TL;DR — Human-first approach can unlock meaningful conversations.
🧩 Interdisciplinarity — only together are we strong.
🧩 Same values — diverse approaches. Truly productive.
🧩 Lasting impact — for the whole ecosystem (web2, web3, foss)

Why do we need privacy and anonymity technology? "One of the pillars of democracy is anonymity. Your vote is anonymous for a reason, so we need anonymity to have a healthy democracy...people need privacy in order to exercise their citizen rights" Thanks @web3privacy.info for chatting with us!
Freedom is a habit, not a software update. Stop waiting or preaching for perfect code or future liberation.
The tools exist. Use them now.

“Whether historians of the future judge [the last 50 years of internet transformation] to be good or bad will depend on whether we can make the societal choice to embed democratic values and human rights into the design and implementation of these systems.” - Micah Altman

The fight for #privacy is the fight for autonomy, dignity, and the preservation of what it means to be human in the digital age.
Welcome to the conversation. The future depends on it.
