About My Blog

This blog is an independent publication launched in July 2025 by David Jardine

If you subscribe today, you'll get full access to the website as well as email newsletters about new content when it's available. Your subscription makes this site possible, and allows my blog to continue to exist. Thank you!

Free Membership

The majority of my posts will be available to everyone, regardless of if you sign-up for a free membership, paid membership, or neither and just visit the site regularly to view the posts. By signing up for the free membership, you gain the ability to comment on my posts and can get my posts emailed to you in a regular newsletter.

Full disclosure, at the moment I don't have a ton of exclusive content that will be available for paid members. Currently it will include some less formal/structured blog posts on topics I care about. In the future I hope to have interactive posts with polls or where we can have a discussion in the comments as well as formal essays that are fully researched and go very in-depth on certain issues in the technology, privacy, and communications worlds.

The paid membership at the moment is more of a donation or like those "buy me a coffee" sites. If you like what I'm doing and want to support me I will appreciate you forever, but if you can't afford it or just don't want to pay for a few extra blog posts I will still appreciate you forever.
