@ai6yr it's pretty tragic. The altruistic and well intentioned built out digital ecosystems that by their very structure became vulnerable to those less well intentioned.

And now broadly we have the structures without the trust.

The primary mistake in tcp/IP is Vint made no provision for where a packet came from, only where it went, so fraud was inevitable (in hindsight) but more fundamental, digital memory can have so provenance. We can trace the cloth on the shroud of Turin but can say nothing at all about the age, origin or history of any given bit-value. Best we can do is only hearsay 😅
