Say I pay the $100 asked for. I am getting a folder that I get exclusive access to update? Someone else shouldn't be able to go in and change the content? I didn't read very closely so I presume I'm getting the point of that $100 clearly. How does that folder protection work excactly?

  Great questions. For the $100, you get the rights for 10 years to update some lines in the `wws.scroll` file (which is actually currently named `readme.scroll`). Think of that file like our DNS root zone file. That's it. We don't provide hosting of your content, just the listing. (Well, we do provide free hosting here: http://hub.scroll.pub/ http://hub.scroll.pub/, but that's still quite beta) So it's similar to buying a domain name. (It is slightly different in that if you buy a folder and want to later rename it, you can, unlike domain names, where you'd have to buy another domain). Here is an example entry: id pldb www https://pldb.io source https://github.com/breck7/pldb snippets blog/All owner Breck Yunits email breck7@gmail.com registered 6/12/2024 expires 6/12/2034 rep Breck Yunits transactionId pm_1PQxCOJktJxKl0r5l24p6Zwu Once you make a purchase, a "Rep" will reach out to you (currently I am the only rep), to get the meta data you want to add. Or you could add it via pull request (https://github.com/breck7/wws/blob/main/readme.scroll https://github.com/breck7/wws/blob/main/readme.scroll). In the future, we will have more "Reps", who will get ~50% of the $100, and be responsible for helping onboard users, approving meta data updates, and ensuring folders comply with the guidelines (https://wws.scroll.pub/gettingStarted.html https://wws.scroll.pub/gettingStarted.html). When your site is part of the WWS, users of the wws can "subscribe" to your site by simply typing "wws fetch [yourFolderName]". That will download the latest compiled version of your site over git. When the user types "wws fetch", it updates all of the sites they subscribe to. So the idea is by adding your site to the WWS, you help contribute to our mission of providing every human with their own copy of humanity's best information, and you give your readers the best possible reading experience.

    All me and stevekemp are saying is you should wrap user input with DOMPurify or xss-filters if you don't want to get surprised sometime in the future.
