It also allows development of all sorts of apps, it's not only for data storage. Freenet achieves DDOS protection without this extreme measure. > This also makes large parts of the network unreachable. With IPFS there are manual deals, it’s not clear how to actually get paid for your file space, and they even opened up a new tier that pays 10x filecoin block rewards for hosting data they consider “important”, but the hosts for that data don’t charge any fees and despite being quite tech-savvy I couldn’t figure out how to start earning FileCoin for hosting, using their program at all! Do I just pin the IDs of data which is going to possibly earn me 10x block rewards, or do I need to advertise and get someone to whitelist me for a “deal”? (Did anyone here do it successfully?) SAFE is autonomous, meaning no one has to agree to host your thing, and no one has to agree to pay you for hosting. This also makes large parts of the network unreachable. > They even have their own implementation of the DHT which removes IP addresses after the first hop, so you can't discover the whole network and DDOS it / block it (which is not true of HyperCore, IPFS, etc.) If you hold the key, why bother encrypting the data with itself? TBH the entire thing reads like a new crypto. And it’s designed so that you're the only one that ever holds the key. So, unless you choose to override it, none of your data touches the Network unless it is encrypted. This 'Self-Encryption' happens before the data ever hits the Network. Your photo starts by being broken into pieces which are then encrypted with the other parts of that same file. That data is protected by a number of layers of encryption. > They encrypt every chunk of data, using "self-encryption." This work ensures that the Network rewards those who provide it with valuable resources. Individuals who choose to supply the resources that the Network requires have the opportunity to be rewarded with Safe Network Tokens. > Safe Network Tokens are the incentive mechanism that encourages individuals to provide the computing resources that the Network requires: storage, broadband, and CPU resources. Why? Because in return for a very small one-time payment, your data will then be stored forever, encrypted and accessible anywhere in the world and only by you-unless you choose to share it. > You're likely to want to store data on the Network. It's like one child playing violently with a toy, forcing the teacher to take the toy away from everyone else. So we're forced to neuter the technology before it can really develop. Those with power and money have continued to show they will not use technology for any positive societal purpose until they are forced to with regulation. The average person can maybe get a funny joke, a bad few lines of code, or an ugly bespoke AI image for their medium article, but the true winners are the ones cutting jobs en masse before the tech has even matured, so both the employee and the customer gets a worse product while the MBA's show a solid quarterly report after they ran a knife across their workforce's neck. These AI tools were thrown in the deep end with a singular purpose: Cheapen what was thought to be protected from computers, while not providing any real value to the layperson. Cheapening human labor(why pay a person to understand anything when you can have an llm do 20% of the job and worse). This has caused these "AI" tools to be used to steal and rehash artists work(cheapening artists because tech bros and MBAs resent art and the time it takes to perfect). Instead of "AI"(be real, llms and stable diffusion) being developed openly and studied without a profit motive, it's been thrust into the cheap world of VCs looking to extract any profit whatsoever from it, nearly immediately.
