RE: Privacy: Illusion or Reality?
I really enjoyed your dissection of the topic and the examples. What can we expect from blockchain based applications and the digital economy then? No privacy or secrecy, or just the illusion of openness and transparency?
At this stage I treat the blockchain as a commons of voluntary participation, but your question is one that I will keep in mind as things develop, especially regarding a widening digital economy. Hopefully there will be ways to maintain privacy during such developments - certainly the effects of pressure place great burdens upon the exercise of principles. Distributed ledgers would seem to present a dilemma to privacy.
