Rode draad ook in MaidSafe’s info voor “Decentralized Web Summit” eind deze maand in San Francisco:
SAFE Network
Our design approach has been inspired by the humble ant whose millions of years of evolution influenced the network’s design. Ant colonies exhibit complex and highly organised behaviour without a central authority based on a simple rule set whereby each ant fulfils different duties based on the needs of the colony. Nodes on the SAFE Network function in a similar manner carrying out different functions based on the types of messages they receive.
Drevel gebruiken om spijker er nog iets beter in te jagen:
The ant colony shows us that this self-managing and self-organising behaviour is possible on a massive scale. Building a Network that doesn’t require humans overseeing operations is necessary because humans at our worst get tired, emotional and make mistakes. Many data breaches are caused by human error and attackers rely on human interaction to carry out attacks.
Ze zitten daar in SF 3 kwartier met Uber van de daders, kan je je waarschijnlijk wel even ongestraft uiten:
Human error has also played a significant part in problems with Silicon Valley’s best known companies. Not only are humans prone to mistakes, it also reminds us that we rely on service providers to get access to our accounts and our data. We do not really own our information - access to our own data can be removed at any time by the providers either mistakenly or at the request of others. This is what we’re looking to change with the SAFE Network.

ABSTRACT
This paper describes a method of distributing information in a controlled non-owned grid.
Speaker: David Irvine
David Irvine is a Scottish Engineer and innovator who has spent the last 12 years researching ways to make computers function in a better way. Inventor listed on 11 patent submissions and designer of one of the world’s largest private networks as well as consultant to many large corporations, he is an experienced project manager. With too much time to work, he rarely stops working on algorithms and problems. He also enjoys sailing (lives on a yacht) and is a keen lifeboat crew/helm who can be sure to take on the worst weather to help others.
MaidSafe was founded by Irvine in 2006:
The invention and announcement of the bitcoin protocol was not until October 31, 2008, when the whitepaper was published (https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf)

The New Internet Shouldn’t Be Blockchain-Based
The Secure Access For Everyone (SAFE) Network is the world’s first autonomous network but what does that mean and why do we need it? What is the difference between the SAFE Network and other blockchain solutions?
Security and privacy focused decentralized storage and communications platform:
We need an autonomous network - one that manages all our data and communications without any human intervention or intermediaries.
Where the rubber meets the road:
The SAFE Network is one in which data cannot be deleted, changed, corrupted, and/or accessed without the data owner’s consent. This is possible because we are removing humans from the management of data so that storage locations are unknown to anyone but the network, whilst the user cannot be identified.
Waar het preservatief het wegdek ontmoet:
Any service where data is stored on servers, federated servers, owned storage locations, or on identifiable nodes, cannot ensure the security of data and brings us no closer to real unfettered ownership of our data. This also includes blockchain-based solutions.
Of Durex een date heeft met ZOAB, Zeer open asfaltbeton:
Autonomous things are already starting to have a huge benefit across a number of industries and we are just scratching the surface in finding out how they can positively impact upon our relationship with our data. Rather than making data more secure, the human element unfortunately has the opposite effect and can lead to data loss, theft, inaccessibility and a fundamental lack of ownership.
Iedereen gaat staan alstublieft, voorganger:
A change for the better, for us all - this is what we’re building with the SAFE Network.

Internet Archive’s Decentralized Web Summit 2018 - July 31-August 2 - San Francisco
Internet Archive, 300 Funston Ave, San Francisco, CA
At the Decentralized Web Summit 2018, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the World Wide Web, will share his latest work on the decentralized project, SOLID. Internet creator and Google Internet Evangelist, Vint Cerf, Mozilla Board Chair, Mitchell Baker, Internet Archive Digital Librarian, Brewster Kahle, IPFS Founder, Juan Benet, and the leaders of the non-profit DAT Project will be among the community of builders sharing their work in this quickly evolving ecosystem.
Update, vergeet ik nog dit eronder te plakken, van (net als ik) een fan van MaidSafe bij TechCrunch:
Protocol for Asynchronous, Reliable, Secure and Efficient Consensus
MaidSafe reckons they’ve come up with a way of achieving consensus on decentralized networks that’s scalable, robust and efficient. Hence the name of the protocol — ‘Parsec’ — being short for: ‘Protocol for Asynchronous, Reliable, Secure and Efficient Consensus’.
They will be open sourcing the protocol under a GPL v3 license — with a rough timeframe of “months” for that release, according to Lambert.
On the timeline front Lambert won’t be coaxed into fixing any deadlines to all these planned alphas. They’ve long ago learnt not to try and predict the pace of progress, he says with a laugh. Though he does not question that progress is being made.
