Way too overcomplicated and authoritarian. The reason why the old internet was good was because it had both a high barrier to entry and a low perceived utility for commercial exploitation. Gemini gets it right by just starting over and limiting their protocol to prevent general appeal and exploitation.

- robnado 3y agoThere is already authoritarian control of the internet going on. I believe the solution is to make this control of the internet explicit, transparent and have the people be able to influence it. Of course, there is nothing wrong with starting your own version of the World Wide Web and that’s definitely also part of the solution.
