from Decentralized Voices · host Daria Volkova

Born in the post-Soviet world, shaped by pirate culture and digital activism, Mykola spent years inside the surveillance capitalism machine before deciding to dismantle it instead.They get into the real meaning of privacy: not as a technical feature, but as a form of freedom. Why cypherpunk is having a mainstream moment in 2026. How AI agents running on your laptop can silently read your encrypted messages. Why sharing your emotional state with ChatGPT is riskier than you think. And why Mykola believes anyone, designers, writers, community managers, can be a privacy activist.This is the first part of one of the most honest conversations about digital freedom you'll hear this year.Mykola on X: https://x.com/nicksvyaznoyDaria on X: https://x.com/DariaStrategyDecentralized Voices website: https://decentralizedvoices.xyz
