I signed up for the paid version of PJ Vogt’s Search Engine show. One of the latest (free) episodes, Who’s behind these scammy text messages we’ve all been getting?, was fascinated and very effecting. I’ve always liked the idea of good, paid media. Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s going to be worth it, but PJ has been proving it for a long time.
That episode has me responding to those bizarre texts like this.

And of course ultimately it’s all powered by crypto. It’s not that doing scammy stuff is possible with crypto that always makes me annoyed with it, it’s that it seems like that’s the only thing it’s for.
