Show Notes
I talk with Nathan Seiuli, Outreach and Events Coordinator at the Free Speech Union in New Zealand.
Over the past few years, it’s become evident that many New Zealanders are both unaware of how vital freedom of speech is, and how dangerous some of the moves are to exclude its protections.
We talk about the work the Free Speech Union is doing in New Zealand, including campaigns to promote debate and critical thinking in schools, providing feedback and advice to government, and calling out actions that infringe upon freedom of speech.
We also talk about how technology such as Bitcoin and Nostr can provide protection for Freedom of speech and freedom of expression.
