If people really want to see distributed tech, then shouldn't there be a world wide push for RINA, instead of the Internet? Many of the problems we struggle against are issues with IP/TCP or IP/UDP. If we could get rid of the Internet, and switch the world to RINA, then some of these arguments would disappear, as they would be assumed by the world wide communications infrastructure.

- drcode 10y agoThis is pretty much exactly what the ethereum project is attempting to do- They are developing their own communications protocol (whisper) their own publishing platform (swarm) their own domain name registrar, etc etc. Yes, at a low level these systems still use TCP/IP, but only in a greatly diminished form and in a manner that allows it to be easily replaced by another low level networking layer.
