Secushare: A decentralized, secure social network built on GNUnet, Hacker News


secushare is a research project that hasn’t reachedprototypestatus, yet. Consider that it basically consists of anew Internet stackcombined with a full-fledged distributedscalabilityalternative to cloud technology. The challenge is so big, please be patient that we’re not done quite yet.

Many people say we should focus on small achievable goals rather than directly save the world. The problem with that approach is that there are hundreds of projects doing achievable goals and they never save the world. Currently this is the only project we know that addresses the problem ofcentralizationin a way that is truly meaningful in terms ofprivacyand designed to salvage a free society into the world of technology – should society decide to outlaw centralization of social data and therefore make something like secushare the only viable path.

So if you truly want to get started with secushare, please read how you can help on theintroductionpage. We’d love to count you in, as a developer, a designer or just as a multiplier and political activist. Because this technology is political.

To paraphrase Cory Doctorow, there are many fights more important than how the Internet is regulated, except the Internet is how every other political fight will be won or lost. So, if we don’t make something like secushare the default communication system that runs onevery electronic devicein the world, we just might have to kiss liberty and a free society good-bye.
