You either need a central authority or a blockchain
@ex_06 @stabby_cicada
Oh no.
Who designs and modifies the chains? Any democracy there? No, not even NGOs, just for-profit tech bros. You can only use their chains by their rules.
Blockchain looks "decentralised" only at user level. Differently from international DNS, which is much more decentralised in control structure, and provides your own freedom in any technology. Blockchains operate under DNS, so they do not remove their constraints, but only add a layer of control of their own.
Well if you and 2 of your friends did it, then voilà you'd have a blockchain with no tech bros and no DNS. It's an idea, just because it has been executed poorly doesn't make it bad in every situation
You know it good, so you also know that blockchain is just a technology. Don’t strawman me pls, I never said to use the existing chains based on cryptonomics :)
Btw NGOs presence is not a good enough marker because usually every chain already got a foundation
