Love those moves

my friend Carlton

I believe that a degree of centralised banking is necessary...

something we shouldn't be doing without... but my next question is how do we find who to trust

can we decentralize trust...or maybe decentralize the path to trust???

Everyone in the world should be calling into question the dominance of the EU and the USA in their "governance" of the entire world, along with the proxy corporations they are using to do it. Enough with the puppet show soap opera, the internet belongs equally to all it's users. Overweight political bodies have no authority to be steering the way the network develops, the march of decentralised technologies will continue to show them who's really in control.

Old news.

Internet governance has always been US-centric. Don't see how it could change.

It says something about European politics that while the European Comission calls in question US dominance in Internet governance, French president F. Hollande, head of (at least traditionally) one of the most important/powerful European nations, during his state visit in Washington DC said "Mutual trust has been restored" after discussion with Obama about NSA activities.
