Cypherpunk Ethics explores the moral worldview of the cypherpunks,
a movement that advocates the use of strong digital cryptography-or
crypto, for short-to defend individual privacy and promote
institutional transparency in the digital age. Focusing on the
writings of Timothy May and Julian Assange, two of the most
prolific and influential cypherpunks, the book examines two
competing paradigms of cypherpunk philosophy-crypto anarchy and
crypto justice-and examines the implications of cypherpunk ethics
for a range of contemporary moral issues, including surveillance,
privacy, whistleblowing, cryptocurrencies, journalism, democracy,
censorship, intellectual property, and power. Rooted in theory but
with very real applications, this volume will appeal not only to
students and scholars of digital media, communication, journalism,
philosophy, political science, critical data studies, sociology,
and the history of technology but also to technologists and
activists around the world.
