A massive vulnerability has been discovered in the decentralized betting
platform Augur. Hackers have been able to feed users incorrect data and game
the system.
Everything shown by the app was susceptible to faking, from
by taking matters into
their own hands. Cryptoanarchist Jim Bell introduced the concept in a paper
called “Assassination Politics” in the mid-1990s. Bell imagined that the
anonymity afforded by modern encryption techniques and the advent of digital
money would allow for political assassinations

s been a long time coming. I wish it had been much faster. But at some
point, the issue would be, does the public actually want the status quo, or
would they prefer a society without wars, militaries, nuclear weapons, one
where 250 million people were killed by governments in the 20th century. Do
they want a repeat of this? Do you have a solution better than AP? If you
don't, you need to explain why people will choose the status quo over an AP
solution.

DNC staffer who was killed before the 2016 election. He might have been saved
if he'd had a gun with him, but that is by no means certain. If a record had
been made of that incident, whether or not Rich had been armed, the murder
would probably have been solved by now. And so, it might have been deterred.
