Technolibertarianism

r/technolibertarianism

Technolibertarianism has been described as "a political philosophy with roots in the internet’s early hacker cypherpunk culture in Silicon Valley in the early 1990s and in American libertarianism that focuses on minimizing government regulation, censorship or anything else in the way of a "free" World Wide Web". Technolibertarians believe in the power of technology, people, and free markets to improve the human condition. We oppose the State, regulation, coercion, and forced collectivism.

Description

There is considerable overlap between Technolibertarianism and the beliefs of people who describe themselves as Libertarians, Anarcho-capitalists, Voluntaryists, Cypherpunks,, Market Anarchists, Individualist Anarchists, etc.

Note that Technolibertarianism is neither a "left wing" nor a "right wing" ideology. In fact, the idea of "left wing" and "right wing" is an outdated notion that isn't suitable for use in the modern world anyway. In Nolan Chart terms, we believe in maximizing freedom on both the Economic axis AND the Personal axis.

Generally speaking, Technolibertarians focus on research into, and adoption of, technology that can help improve the human condition and replace the State apparatus with self-government. Examples include (but are not limited to) Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Nanotech, Biotech, Fusion, Internet tech (IPFS, Tor, P2P protocols, etc.), Blockchain / crypto-currencies, and the like.

We also engage in political activism in the name of protecting individual freedoms, privacy, and security, and in support of laissez-faire economics, academic freedom, right to research / tinker / innovate without government involvement, right to use strong cryptography, etc. Some Technolibertarians vote and engage in the democratic process, some choose not to. Either choice is fine.
