    I’ll admit I haven’t heard of hispagatos before so I don’t want to immediately jump to judgement and will check out some of their blog posts and stuff (to hopefully brush up on my spanish if nothing else).

    But I will say it’s not really a great look having my first contact with an “anarchist hacker collective” being a shopify shop selling t-shirts/hats/etc with no information about sourcing and a link to a blog where the most recent post is supporting them by mining cryptocurrency.

    Edit: after checking out some of the blog posts, I see they espouse a lot of good ideals and principles. I’m very slow at reading spanish so I haven’t had a great overview yet, but I am heartened to see what appears to be some good content.

    I still have some questions about the discrepancy between the content of the blog and “visit our shopify store,” but I guess I can understand from a practical standpoint that money is generally required to further an organization’s goals.

      Hello, yes, unfortunately one of our members created it on shopify to “test” we were not 100% yet, and now we just decided to use it until we can install an opensource store like https://woocommerce.com/ or similar that we can host it ourself. is a chiken-egg problem, we need some donations to get the server running to add the open/libre store.

      oh BTW and thanks for your edits, know we always choose libre/free and hacker ethical ways, we are new on this having a “store” but we working on it to be able to migrate to a 100% libre option.
