SECURE SHARE

Metadata-protected messaging and scalable social networking on top of @GNUnet, because @youbrokethenet.

@katarinabarley @danielasgedanke @danielbaer @BMJV_Bund We don't believe basic communication between human beings should be somebody's product. It should be a built-in basic function of the Internet like SMS has been for GSM. Look at our project for a distributed social networking system that doesn't put data on servers in the clear.

@404_city @Xabber_XMPP @iNPUTmice @katarinabarley Too bad that #XMPP doesn't scale well, doesn't provide enough #metadataprotection and has this outdated dependency on servers. We need distributed social networking systems instead, to replace both Facebook and Whatsapp.

@MoosaNAhmed @iowhawk @AOC Sounds like a problem specific to *your* architecture, not ours. If the stream of pubsub is consistent, then you simply have a follow-up event that instructs the viewing agent to modify a previous event. Done.

@X_Cli_Public @oerdnj @GNUnet Too bad that the blockchain is just one special case data structure useful for only few applications. Quite ironic if those wouldn't even need all the P2P consensus mumbo jumbo. As soon as you need to also consider privacy and civil rights a blockchain is not enough.

@zoobab Only #GNUnet actually interprets #CensorshipAsDamage and routes around it. The #brokenInternet is quite easy to #censor instead…

We need a new Net or #gnunet but until those things gain a foothold we also need to protect as best we can the WWW from #drm #censorship #surveillance etc.

@X_Cli_Public @oerdnj Are you guys discussing @GNUnet's #GNS there? That #IdentitySystem that is #distributed yet doesn't need a #blockchain…?

[SECURE SHARE @secushare]

@bortzmeyer The two are unrelated. If Bob has a web server 'www' in his zone doesn't imply that Alice also has a web server responding at her 'www'. But she can decide to import Bob's. In any case you can reach his web server as www.bob.alice.gnu if you happen to know Alice. #GNS

[Stéphane Bortzmeyer @bortzmeyer]

If www.gnu is Alice's Web server, www.bob.gnu is Alice's Bob's Web server. #GNUnet #relative #JCSA16

@juanof9 Shouldn't the intervention of the Supreme Court against P2P be mentioned as a major factor blocking this technology?

@jgbarah Wait… I meant #FederationFallacy

[SECURE SHARE @secushare]

@jgbarah pick any of the five servers… see also #FallacyOfFederation why they are (de facto) only five… #mastodon

[SECURE SHARE @secushare]

@aatishrZA Hope we will win out… but only if the myth of thinking that either #blockchain or #federation can deliver the holy grail of digital communications between human beings is buried and work is invested in getting something like @GNUnet off the ground…

[Francois @FrancoisFranky]

@chrislbecker All your info is somewhere. Haha. Deleting Facebook won't help.

[Emerson Estrella @emersonestrella]

@chrislbecker 😆 dude Ethereum doesn’t scale!!!

@Xabber_XMPP @bascule I don't believe you. It's a protocol. It shouldn't need to have One Great Product (i.e. only one viable implementation). Several folks have implemented or tried to implement it and then decided to drop it. I find this post more convincing: https://t.co/LAH46VWCnn

[SECURE SHARE @secushare]

@adampiontek @BenjaminHCCarr … and by #distributedSystems we mean the kind of #P2P systems that do not depend on TCP/IP… so we are *not* speaking of any inner implementation details of cloud services… that's way too easy in comparison

[SECURE SHARE @secushare]

@adampiontek @BenjaminHCCarr I hope so! Just… having thought about these problems since ~2009 I may have a perspective to add… centralization *is* a problem in itself and given real finances distributed systems could solve it… so far no-one has invested enough
