Human action is purposeful behavior, and any argument against the claim must itself be purposeful behavior aimed at convincing someone. The denial performs what it tries to refute.

From that starting point, descriptive facts about privacy follow. Deliberation occurs in the actor's mind, valuation lives in individual acts of valuing, and the information asymmetry between actor and observer is built into how purposeful behavior works.

Two traditions developed apart and reached the same conclusion about privacy. The Austrian line worked by deduction from human action. Cypherpunks worked by engineering, building tools that made privacy a property of the system instead of a promise from authorities.

Convergence from opposite directions counts as evidence. Konkin's counter-economics bridges the schools, taking Austrian critique into a program of transition the cypherpunks made operational.

This post makes the case for sleeping in forests over supermarket lots, and explains how the discovery works.
