Thoughts by Jack Dorsey on the future of open, decentralized, censorship resistant social protocols. This is from Pirate Wire’s Mike Solana’s interview with him this month. In Jack’s words:

I think the internet needs a decentralized protocol for social media.

I just don't think a protocol needs a board or wants a board.

We need different options if we truly believe in censorship resistance. We need to change the foundation everything is built on.

There are no guarantees because you're not building on top of a technology that guarantees the right. It has to guarantee the right, it can't just be granted to you.

I think a confirmed identity that you own, that is not given to you by a government or corporation, that you truly own, is the way through this, because you can verify authenticity.

I think it has to start with your own identity, and who owns your identity. Right now, all the companies own our identities.

Let people choose what algorithm they want to use, even write their own algorithms to filter all the conversations. To me, that would give users ultimate agency, and ultimate freedom.

If you truly believe in the freedom of speech, you gotta go to the heart of where it's now being decided. And that's not the policy, it's the actual algorithm itself.
