TAZ | Temporary Autonomous Zone.

The internet was never free. It was born as a military surveillance and counterinsurgency tool, and the shift to the commercial web didn’t change that, it just privatised it. Google, Facebook, and the rest didn’t corrupt something pure, they inherited and monetised the original design.

Knowing that changes how you think about everything, the apps you use, the services you trust, the tools you rely on to stay private. There is no perfect opt-out, but there is a spectrum, and moving along it matters.

These are notes from someone paying attention.

“The T.A.Z is like an uprising which does not engage directly with the State, a guerilla operation which liberates an area (of land, of time, of imagination) and then dissolves itself to re-form elsewhere/elsewhen, before the State can crush it.” — Hakim Bey
