On Nov 14 the Human Rights Foundation will launch its CBDC Tracker at the
National Press Club in Washington, DC The Tracker will go online for the first
time, providing the public with a resource to examine the progress and risks of
CBDC implementation worldwide Like paper dollars or euros, CBDCs are liabilities
of central banks Unlike paper dollars or euros, CBDCs do not offer the privacy
protections, neutrality, or finality of cash Virtually all money today is
already digital, but it is typically issued and controlled by private banks and
fintech companies, even in dictatorships like China When consumers use a credit
card, spending is at the discretion of the corporation that issued the card When
consumers deposit money into their bank accounts, their funds are liabilities of
the bank CBDCs are an effort to: 1) Replace paper cash with government-issued,
government controlled digital credits 2) Reduce the power of private banks 3)
Expand state control over the economy Paper cash doesn’t require identification,
can be used by anyone with no discrimination, and cannot be easily tracked As
such, cash is a daily tool of human rights activists, dissidents, and civil
society, especially under authoritarian regimes CBDCs stand to potentially phase
out this tool for human rights defenders, making them entirely reliant on
currency that is surveilled and easily frozen and censored Unlike cash, CBDCs
can require ID, have expiration dates, be remotely frozen, and abide by
blacklists HRF believes CBDCs pose a significant threat to human rights work
worldwide, especially for people living under tyranny More than 100 countries
are researching CBDCs, while more than 20 have pilots, and a handful of
governments have already launched some kind of retail product Russia, India, the
EU, the US, Brazil, and other major governments have all signaled intent to
pursue CBDC projects HRF considers it important to track these activities and
document what risk they pose to human rights We are pleased to be working with
the Bitcoin Policy Institute to launch the CBDC Tracker at the National Press
Club in Washington at 10:00am ET on November 14th We are excited to share the
work of the project authors: Nick Anthony, Janine Roem, and Matthew Mezinskis If
you would like to learn more about the project or RSVP to the launch event,
please contact
@ck
We look forward to sharing the resource with all of you on Nov 14

At an airport, getting a burger. An Impossible burger (which I am not getting)
is 20% more expensive than a real burger. How is that not a scam? Who buys that?
Imagine putting plants together and the result is more expensive than beef.

If “green energy” (including w/ storage as needed) costs more than hydrocarbons
and doesn’t win in the marketplace, then maybe it is more environmentally
impactful than you think, with energy-intensive and materially-intensive supply
chains. Likewise, if fake meat costs more than real meat, then maybe it too is
more environmentally impactful then you think, with energy-intensive and
materially-intensive supply chains.

I think inertia is leading us toward a quantified state, in which the costs of
tracking and categorizing objects — primarily people, phones, cars, and money —
as they move from place to place becomes so low that most institutions are doing
it by reflex, without either considering or caring for consequences. Eventually,
somebody is going to exploit the gap in information (between what is available
to ordinary people, and what is available to organizations) in a way that causes
enormous, historic harm, as happened in WWII when a particular state realized
that IBM had compiled a database that was perfect for populating a list of names
of those who would soon be marched off to camps. And that was just census data.
Now they know what you read, where you go, who you're with, and how you'll vote.
The unfortunate reality of contemporary political thought is that consequences
do not exist until they are felt. Rare is the chicken that fears the farmer.
That means we've got two options: we either wait for the pain, or we stop
waiting for political consensus.
