We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Archane mobile wisdom Archane mobile wisdom
News you can use
Tip: do this before your mobile phone is stolen!
(translation: that means ‘cell phone’ to you bloggers in the United Snakes of America)
You may find the tip below of interest but hopefully you will never have to make use of the knowlage.
A little ‘get your own back’ if you have your mobile stolen.To check your Mobile phone’s serial number, key in the following digits on your phone:
*#06#
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it safe.
Should your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then block your handset so even if the thief changes the Sim card your phone will be totally useless. You probably won’t get your phone back, but at least you know that the thief can’t use/sell it either. If everybody did this, there would be no point in stealing mobile phones!
Impart this archane wisdom to as many people as possible.

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.
