Topics
David Sacks：加拿大政府冻结与卡车司机抗议相关的银行账户，标志着金融去平台化成为网络审查的下一个方式。特鲁多不仅动用紧急状态法镇压抗议，还指示银行和金融机构冻结任何捐款给抗议者的账户，这是一种专制行为。政府动用紧急权力来应对非暴力抗议是不合适的，并且在动用紧急权力之前，应该先尝试其他的法律手段。 Chamath Palihapitiya：如果有人在线向旧金山抢劫和杀人的罪犯捐款，政府阻止他们向犯罪活动捐款是否合适？卡车司机封锁道路的行为并非和平抗议，而是违反法律的行为。政府动用紧急权力来应对非暴力抗议是不合适的。特鲁多政府的这一举动是糟糕的决策，可能会适得其反。特鲁多将自己逼入政治困境，然后赋予自己绝对权力。加拿大政府的行动可能加速了国家与加密货币之间的冲突。比特币允许人们绕过政府的审查，向被政府迫害的人提供资金支持。将不同意见者去平台化或冻结其账户是一种危险的先例。 Andrew Freedman：加拿大政府冻结加密货币钱包，促使人们将资金转移到政府无法控制的网络中。政府应对抗议活动的方式应该是倾听和理解，而不是采取压制措施。媒体对特鲁多的行为表示支持，加剧了局势。“觉醒”运动已经达到顶峰，但其影响力依然存在。“觉醒”运动的机制已经不再有效。“觉醒”运动的钟摆摆得太远了，但社会正义和气候变化仍然是重要的议题。
