I approved this one, despite it being definitely on the line of on-topic. One of the rules here is that we're the cryptography list, as opposed to cryptocurrency, etc. Cryptography is a technology that is about power, morality, and other things (c.f Rogaway's "The Moral Character of Cryptographic Work" and I'd rather err on being slightly too inclusive. Nonetheless, this could easily go into areas worth discussing, just not here.
