Karel Janeček, a Czech mathematician and founder of RSJ Algorithmic Trading, has continued to advocate for his D21 voting system, which he describes as a method that gives voters more votes than the number of winning candidates to encourage consensus and positive campaigning. In a 2025 podcast, he stated that D21 is "not about negative voting; on the contrary it will support consensus and cooperation." He also discussed the Datacon project, a data analysis competition focused on open data about COVID-19 effects, which he said aims to "get as close to the truth as possible" and "start closing the gap between one side and the other side of the Covid dispute." In other recent appearances, Janeček has expressed views on urban design, arguing that cities are designed for cars rather than people and that society should prioritize human-centered spaces. He has also commented on broader societal issues, stating in a 2025 podcast that "the collapse of Western civilization is underway" and that during COVID, schools were closed "completely senselessly" and children were vaccinated with an "express vaccine" that damaged their health. He has continued to promote the use of virtual reality and other technologies, and has discussed the potential for an "evolutionary leap" in human society.
