Does anyone know if Krugman still has a fax machine? Would love to send him a fax that says:

"By 2005 or so, it will become clear that the Internet’s impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine’s."

- Sent over the internet, paid for by Bitcoin, to your fax machine.

At least the Japanese government. Based on Permanent Record, the book of Snowden, I would guess the CIA too. He mentioned they were still using tapes.

Let me tell you something... With 3CX Voip system and DIDWW you can have a virtual VoIP & fax server with virtual numbers (from DIDWW) and booom you have a "nostr relay" based on fax and secure E2E encryption.

You can send notes and memes over fax. 3CX also can fw those faxes attached to an email, run by a simple local email server (can be the same machine).

I've built this system several times in the past... works super nice. NOBODY can intercept or read those messages over fax.

Pretty cool!

It reminds me of Paul Krugman who said something like the internet will turn out to be nothing more than the fax machine.

But yeah, who uses fax nowadays?
