End-to-end encryption can actually facilitate privacy. Blockchain is at best orthogonal to privacy, a public ledger generally undermines it.
As an aside, I don’t really get how a domain name connects to privacy. When I use encryption (including HTTPS) to communicate, the goal is to stay hidden and unknown. When I set up a domain name for my business, the goal is directly the opposite. Not to say there can be no reasons to advertise while remaining anonymous, just not sure privacy is a great parallel to draw.
Come on, more strawmen? First talking about shotguns, now privacy.
I didn't talk about facilitating privacy. You brought this up, in order to switch the subject to something end-to-end encryption can facilitate.
Blockchain isn't about privacy, it's about making sure that no one can control or man-in-the-middle-attack the network. People don't have to trust the middleman anymore.
I wasn’t talking about privacy at all. I was saying that your approach of “you have nothing to worry about if you arent doing anything wrong” is not very great, and it is exactly what is used by governments to fight against something you probably like more than blockchain and consider necessary, even though it can be used to facilitate terrorism. So you should take a look at whether you have double standards with regard to things you dont like vs things you like and think we need.
