Time for #reintroduction
I am a public interest technologist working at the Freedom of the Press Foundation https://freedom.press My day job is to work on https://securedrop.org using which people can leak information to the journalists securely. I also contribute to many #opensource projects. I am a core member of the @torproject and also core developer of the #Python programming language & a director and fellow of Python Software Foundation.
@kushal @torproject
Have a question? Can we make #mastodon truly decentralized? Like each node running an instance, kind of like blockchain.the instances right now are still centralized with the mod of that instance enforcing policy guidelines.
@ullulullu @torproject someone has to be the moderator/admin. Even if it means it is a single person instance.
Btw, blockchain is just a hype and good for nothing.
@kushal @torproject
Can't the moderator/admin policies be defined through an algorithm that can be voted upon by the members of that instance. So that the mod doesn't get a dictatorial control on that instance?
nah, the best option for you I think is that you run your own instance. Be the free person you always wanted to be.
@kushal @torproject WOW. Your day job looks very nice.
@kushal thank you for fighting the good fight!
@kushal nice to connect here! Saw ur blog also....one quick question - how do I join the msdtn.social node ?? I dont seem to find it?
@kushal this sounds like an extremely fun and mentally taxing day job
