Pretty much in the title. Maybe you wouldn’t even use it, but would like to simply see it exist for the sake of having a federated alternative.
For me, it’d be the following:
- Meetup
- Tiktok
I am on the first two, but would prefer a federated alternative. I’m not on Tiktok, but would like to see a federated alternative.
I’ll admit these might not be a good idea. But as a thought experiment, I’d be curious about the community weigh in on what you all think this might look like.
Deleting anything from the internet is theorically impossible, it shouldn’t a mandatory requirement for anything.
Instead you publish a deletion request that politely asks everyone to pretend it doesn’t exist
Whether it’s impossible is up for debate. Deleting your data from any social media or google-like platform is pretty much impossible. Deleting your old blogger that hasn’t been archived in any manner, perfectly doable.
There’s also the blatantly illegal stuff that is removed from the wider net whenever it’s found, like child abuse stuff. Imagine that kind of thing being available “forever” in a blockchain.
I meant in the sense that if someone got a copy while it was up, then it’s not really gone. Even if the statists try to exterminate all copies, they will probably fail.
After all, even the pirate bay is still reachable in the clearnet. There is stilln a long way to go before they can really stamp out thoughtcrime.
