With DNN, the ICANN-DNS problem is solved, and I thought "someone else can handle the ICANN-IANA problem", and someone conceptually did, but I thought today "why wait for the implementation to then have DNN support it later?" I'll just go ahead and support it now and build/playtest with it as soon as possible.

DNN will actually be a non-hostile full ICANN (DNS and IANA) alt.

With adoption, the internet will be half fully decentralized/permissionless/censorship-resistant.

What's left is the ISP problem, and I'm hoping, with time, Tollgate will be that solution. Once it reaches 50%+ adoption, the internet will fully be properly decentralized/permissionless/censorship-resistant.

The other issues (CDN, ads, etc) are a breeze in comparison / would be fixed later.

That would the like all our Christmas wishes came true

what is DNN?

DNN: Decentralized Naming Network

https://icannot.xyz/

Documentation:

https://git.nostrdev.com/freakoverse/DNN

Still in development but close to being done.

Here's a short demo of the latest version:

https://files.catbox.moe/84bw6j.mp4

Here's a demo of its implementation on a nostr client:

https://video.nostr.build/1866937a257bdf3f4181eb2f7dc8751dbfc9f669747277be8bb61db413db7d1d.mp4

Basically, (as an example) if instead of me having to rent freakoverse.com for $25 every year where it can be censored, taken away or shut down, stolen, I'll just get nabceabsurd for around $1 where i'd own it forever and can't be taken away or shut down, or stolen, or censored, and i can use it as a nostr id (instead of a long npub, (as shown in the second video), and/or use it as a resolver for infinite number of websites (as shown in the first video).
