Really useful website for analyzing your competitors. Or simply finding something similar to what you were searching for but you could not spell out.

Given that localbitcoins, localethers and others have closed now it seems there do not rest much services. Note that all of these 'P2P platforms' did require KYC. The alternatives recommended by Paxful CEO are ridicoulus.
I would recommend https://localmonero.co which also supports both I2P and Tor.

When playing it "again" the animations and sound are not sync anymore. Otherwise great work.

I don't know about you, but I just listen to all the uploads from everyone uploading stuff there at https://playground.play.ht/listen/$tracknumber and also download all of them with the nice download button provided (I don't). But it would be really nice to have these credible (after some editing) recordings of senior officials saying all sorts of politically incorrect things.

Wow, I call to the team behind this. I really STRONGLY think you should at least implement some sort of URL stealthing. I'm not a Web Security expert, but it reminds me of a talk where some company just made medical records 'public' like this.

This is somewhat related, though I do not know how it was made.

I also find it very daunting having lying around all sorts of history files I never use like bash, wget and even less.
mugr | 3 years ago | on: SushiDAO served with subpoena by SEC
Just about everyone here seems to have a principaled position against DLT.
Also I think it should be mentioned that this is one of the first cases a relativley old and renowned DAO could be actually tried in a legal case with many possible implications. Also such a so called "technology neutral approach" to regulation has some flaws in itself. For example most people would say you can't really compare the web to mid 20th century phone lines and still a lot of laws are called something akin to "Communications act". That said I have not paid a lot of interest to Sushi, I finder other swaps better and I guess that 3 million dollars (to one person ?) are a kinda weird proposal.

The internet is not the same as the web, which is what the entry talks about.

One thing they interestingly did not mention is the in recent years very beloved scene of AI ethics.
