I'm not sure people realize that HN is already at the most libertarian end, and all the discourse spaces which are much closer to actual power and legislation are much less pro-privacy. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Reddit seems to have drifted back to more libertarian than HN on privacy issues. At least in technical subreddits. Not sure why that is, perhaps there are more users here whose salaries are tied to surveillance. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Historically, like 10-20 years ago, libertarian would be staunchly pro privacy. Is this no longer the case? If libertarians have dropped this stance, since it is so close to what was the core beliefs, I really have no mental model of the philosophy/politics for libertarians any more. Any primer/link on what current libertarians believe is welcome. | ||||||||||||||||||||
