Ummm no. You're late to the game. Also, you're not established. If anyone has a claim to this, it's Voat. (Despite their difficulties)

  Who runs voat? How do I know it isn't run by Russian spies? or US spies?
  • monksy 11y ago
    Probably both.. and what prevents either of those from running this?
  • bhouston 11y ago
    It is run by a Swedish student, and his friends, from Sweden.

  Why is this being downvoted? Voat.co is really winning this space, mostly because of timing and exploiting an opportunity.

    Law 32: Play to People's Fantasies http://48laws-of-power.blogspot.com/2011/05/law-32-play-to-peoples-fantasies.html http://48laws-of-power.blogspot.com/2011/05/law-32-play-to-p... A lot of people feel that a "decentralized social service" would be great. It hits a techies' ideas: free, open, unfiltered, uncontrolled by government. I personally feel that it's too much like dispora: Too much tech, too little network, and a bit unproven that its a reliable/convincing network. I believe that Voat [like reddit after the digg-fail] hit a sweet spot. Although they've been a little unprepared and may be a little naive about how dirty their opposition may be.
