I ' ve been thinking about this and the inescapable conclusion I keep reaching is that any centralised system is subject to arbitrary censorship . I ' ve been looking at distributed models to see if there there is any hope there . Some examples would include , a meshnet based on CJDNS and . Still , this is a long way off from being mainstream , but I do think it necessary to think along these lines . More importantly I think ' social media ' is an incredibly bad thing for society . It creates echo chambers and also can be subject to arbitrary censorship and surveillance . To this end I ' ve been looking into Tox Chat as a communications alternative which could , theoretically , have some basic social functionality built into it . For example , integrating some sort of RSS feed and reader into it would give you a pseudo Twitter platform that is distributed , anonymous and massively censorship resistant . You can see via the link above that there are clients build in various languages and for various platforms . Perhaps it could be modified to have one to many broadcasts meaning we could have live , distributed radioTV shows over it etc . The possibilities are near endless . I think that playing whack a mole with websites and censorship is a losing game ultimately . The left is going to just keep on pushing for mass surveillance and censorship on the back of various problems that they themselves created see Terrorism in the EU being used to justify the recent snoopers charter in the UK for example . They system needs to be rebuilt from the ground up . We need some sort of meshnet protocol which forever removes the power to censor from government . If we don ' t do that , the internet will die . Tox with some sort of optional Twitter functionality laid over it would be a good first step as it ' s pretty much ready for mass adoption as is . Changing the underlying protocols of the rest of the internet would obviously take time , but , for example , one could release a preconfigured browser , similar to the Tor Browser , to make the User Experience for the layman as seamless as possible . I could go on and on , but I ' m just throwing ideas around at the moment . I hope you see where I ' m going with this . This would be what I think we should focus on . Rework the Freenet code or something . We need a censorship resistant internet and we need it now . It ' s no small task . Here ' s another interesting idea . m a e l s t r o m usingtorrentshostwebsites Hosting Websites via the BitTorrent protocol . There are a lot of very good ideas out there . What we need to do now is focus and bring manpower to certain ones . I don ' t know which ones yet , but that ' s what I think we should do . Thoughts ?
