I got recently mocked, scolded and ultimately fired from a "Bitcoin company" for suggesting (against the volatile will of the "CEO") that we should adopt a philosophy like this.
Most people can't even imagine the levels of hypocrisy and bs we cypherpunks have to endure in our daily lives from predatory corporate whores that see in Bitcoin only a means to getting rich quick and easy.

So, thank you, friend, for being the voice of many.

Cypherpunks are the backbone of #bitcoin. Don't get it twisted.

Cypherpunk is someone who uses cryptography and related technologies in a rebellious or anti-establishment way to promote individual privacy and freedom.

The term "cypherpunk" combines the words "cipher" (code or cryptography) and "punk" (anti-authoritarian attitude). Cypherpunks advocate for the use of strong cryptography and decentralized systems to protect individual liberties and challenge state control over communications and transactions.

So a cypherpunk is essentially a tech-savvy individual or activist who leverages cryptography and related tools like encryption, anonymity networks, and decentralized platforms to circumvent censorship, surveillance, and other forms of centralized authority over digital spaces.The underlying philosophy is about using code and math as a form of civil disobedience and empowerment against oppressive systems.
