      “A demoralized person is unable to properly assess truthful information. Facts mean nothing to them— even when presented with clear evidence, documents, or images.

      &amp;#34;Gold is boring, just a piece of yellow metal. With advances in nanotechnology, it will be possible to extract it even from seawater.

    <content type="html">
      Bitcoin Wallet Begins Charging ‘Inactivity Fee’ to Users; Amounts Reach Up to $30,000&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Users of a Bitcoin wallet are accusing its developers of moving their coins without permission. Numerous reports about the issue can be found on social media.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The transfers are reportedly an “inactivity fee” charged by the wallet, which operates on both the native Bitcoin network and the Lightning Network. The fee is outlined in its terms of service.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Unlike other well-known wallets, such as Electrum or Ledger, this wallet offers a shared custody solution. As a result, the developers also have access to the funds.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;As an example, a user shared a screenshot showing that the developers deducted $200 in Bitcoin from their wallet. The invoice cites an “inactivity fee” as the justification.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;In another post, several similar comments can be found. While some question the motivations behind these transfers, others threaten to sue the company.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“All the money in my &lt;span itemprop=&#34;mentions&#34; itemscope itemtype=&#34;https://schema.org/Person&#34;&gt;&lt;a itemprop=&#34;url&#34; href=&#34;/nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qydhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytf39ehxymewv9hxwctwdyhxxmcle4rs5&#34; class=&#34;bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Alby&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;span class=&#34;italic&#34;&gt;nprofile…4rs5&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  was transferred, can you fix this?

      This boy SAVED the INTERNET… but couldn&amp;#39;t save himself.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;10 years ago, he was persecuted by his government, and ultimately paid with his life.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron Swartz is a modern hero that most people DO NOT KNOW.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But they should.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/a5163a2d322330e5853e14ddf87d1613eecbdff0e23451d9f3059d3c1e0cd723.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron was creative, focused, and brilliant.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;At 14, he invented RSS; He dropped out of Stanford; At 19, he was in the first Y Combinator class; He co-founded Reddit.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Most likely, if he were alive today, he would be involved with #Bitcoin.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But that’s not EVEN 1% of what he did for us 🙏&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Let’s take a look 👇&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/37c7dd4a0ddbad0ae5a98babc66adc4916cc4a03b13d63d0fced0e6c3e0541fd.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;From a young age, Aaron believed in an OPEN INTERNET. In computers as a tool for LIBERATION.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#34;But wait, wasn’t the internet always open?&amp;#34;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;No.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Believe it or not, there was a time when they wanted you to REGISTER your ID before you could browse or send an email.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/77deabc6b94e160f43a3dd1522c5dac30061ac5423e6b2e3df10162a25e8e612.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/960a2e8b7b518cd7f34af6d791518cdabf7b7cdc22366decc16c667cad1f727f.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/5d22d57a1ed58ce2f301d45dd09500d066c8c422039ce4c9c30eec586178fddd.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He believed that PUBLIC LEGAL RECORDS and SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH should be accessible to everyone.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But in the U.S.,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;• 98% of scientific articles are behind paywalls; and&lt;br/&gt;• ~80% of legal records are too.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Imagine being sued and still having to pay to view the documents?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;video controls width=&#34;100%&#34; class=&#34;max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700&#34;&gt;&lt;source src=&#34;https://video.nostr.build/2af872c7a7d1b74ce0fb8d42369a87df45a7ee2d23df006d287b58ac60fcfe26.mp4&#34;&gt;&lt;/video&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron&amp;#39;s war had 3 major battles.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The first was against PACER.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A legal records database.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;PACER is PAID... but it was &amp;#34;free&amp;#34; in 17 public libraries.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;With friends, Aaron wrote a script on a USB drive, plugged it into a USB port, downloaded 2.7 million documents... and SET THEM FREE.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;video controls width=&#34;100%&#34; class=&#34;max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700&#34;&gt;&lt;source src=&#34;https://video.nostr.build/21b565dd1742bc950748be2ac0e0ce2868f4b94c54d1da9321a198c49fe85d1e.mp4&#34;&gt;&lt;/video&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;No charges were made against the group.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But the FBI began to take notice.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;That had only been the beginning. That boy would still challenge the system.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The following year, Aaron would enter the biggest fight of his life — and the greatest battle in internet history against censorship ✊&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/ab43c6a3d189953bfee2fdc26760e819bc9e637dce97d0c8362a36192487b0aa.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#34;SOPA/PIPA&amp;#34; 👉 if you&amp;#39;re over 20, you probably still remember these acronyms.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A bill to &amp;#34;combat piracy&amp;#34;... which was just an excuse for the government to shut down ANY SITE, without warning.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Some companies loved the idea.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But those who loved the internet fought back.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/605d066f5a7cc73cf8efe620725ac19f3fa9e85b760acd9e66b6f637b6837681.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And then, something wonderful happened.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We still knew how to fight against online censorship.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;In a coordinated response, the biggest websites on the internet &amp;#34;went on STRIKE.&amp;#34;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Wikipedia and Reddit went offline. Google turned black.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Protests also erupted in the STREETS.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But...&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/605d066f5a7cc73cf8efe620725ac19f3fa9e85b760acd9e66b6f637b6837681.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/12adaed7c7a5ce9e8ce3c0944111c45e0e311b02c14319ef31910ea3ee5c60aa.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/7a23543a1a8be95067289d830c766a4af93a321402ba1e2f53b268d660cba2fa.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/0f934d461a5491c39928a1a1bdbfbefe16cb4f70abd6e8bb54c9ee2e6621b438.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;... but people have short memories.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This battle was won.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;However, the NEXT one would be the LAST for young Aaron.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This MIT security camera was the final straw that ruined his life 👇📹&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/e48beb62bce1cdc7554d8e602786a29969a687202f7c7e6971f9f203de3160e6.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;JSTOR was Swartz&amp;#39;s final target: the largest database of academic papers in the world.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron wrote a script to download MILLIONS of papers, over the course of months, using his MIT access, in a small room.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;MIT has a rebellious culture.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But the FBI could no longer tolerate the boy&amp;#39;s defiance.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/0f98f712709cacd788a841186630069f9b8877bbea34374f83c529e0b29d1385.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;With the video evidence, the U.S. prosecution charged Aaron with 13 crimes. Up to 50 years in prison.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;In January 2011, he was arrested by undercover agents near the Harvard campus.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;From then on, he was legally tortured.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Two years later, he would be found dead at home.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/0e6b2b6d4ac93cc031267d6a3ae4fdd1afbaf7154c3d1b28db144e703325eff3.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/94285f292eb025a91ba591bb14ac0c8739607d428a956f73eb01a7b5c2f1f360.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#34;Aaron would be 38 years old today.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He was accused of &amp;#39;pirating&amp;#39; scientific papers funded with public money.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Facing up to 50 years in prison, he took his own life.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Those he inspired continue to democratize access to science.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Let us remember him.&amp;#34;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;*These are the words of Susan, his mother.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/cb82dfbd1b0675e53a6a24ba2b6c6c50be08b60dc315f9a3cfbf3de4ded0a191.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;After his death, the charges were dropped by the government.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron never considered entering a &amp;#39;plea deal&amp;#39;. He would have faced millions of dollars in legal costs.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The father of the internet, Tim Berners-Lee, published a short poem at the time that says it all:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“The world was a little worse for his passing,&lt;br/&gt;But a lot better for his being.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/110bd2ce6b535252ecff250b6609cc6f301b906f6681c2459d375c09af2a9548.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron wasn’t a unanimous figure. You may disagree with his methods.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But he was faithful to his ideal.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He was genuine. Firm in what he believed.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He was a person who used his prodigious skills not to enrich himself, but to make the internet fairer, and the world a better place.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/570b43a6887dfa430be76e33a416c7bbc65d05e9acf0404ae46ad1a522bf9abc.jpg&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aaron had worked with Virgil Griffith (former Ethereum, now imprisoned for &amp;#34;teaching about crypto&amp;#34; to North Koreans).&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He knew Elizabeth Stark (from Lightning).&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He was friends with Zooko.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And he wrote about #Bitcoin — on the DAY he was arrested (1/6/11)! 😢&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/squarezooko&#34;&gt;http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/squarezooko&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/5809cf5fa01059fd6333df5a3010a49fbb17642f447d33674ea4388640fb9703.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/e7fe674ce2598619319edeae7a342da44e8d35baf99aac31df07924c446b8e56.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/a5ccd76d96ed40ca7a6337050c427d0caee576d1221858aef7e841e32fb9b00c.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Curious? To learn more about the story, start with this documentary (on YouTube) 👇&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;[&lt;a href=&#34;https://youtu.be/9vz06QO3UkQ&#34;&gt;https://youtu.be/9vz06QO3UkQ&lt;/a&gt;](&lt;a href=&#34;https://youtu.be/9vz06QO3UkQ&#34;&gt;https://youtu.be/9vz06QO3UkQ&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We’ll finish with an excerpt from the &amp;#34;Manifesto for Free Access,&amp;#34; by Aaron himself:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#34;Information is power. But, like all power, there are those who want to keep it for themselves. There is no justice in following unjust laws. It’s time to come to the light, and, in the tradition of civil disobedience, declare our opposition to the private theft of public culture.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We must take information, wherever it is, make our copies, and share them with the world.&amp;#34;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;RIP, Aaron ✊&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/18af509a01336df22725822ce2acc3b3008e433dcd83b4c617ad6b877501e34e.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/a1bf70d3e884b2ff36f35576fc914d42cb71663440d512d89b3c93bc1af5902f.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/7aa7111a401e98bc3a02ff2ab2321839c79e89f9845bbdaa654f3d468f79b3b0.png&#34;&gt;
