A
A
So
what
I
want
to
talk
about
now
is
a
new
hard
problem
nobody's
considering
yet
which
is
email
address
portability.
Why?
Because
that's
the
key
to
a
decentralized
web
now,
obviously,
I'm
not
building
a
global
identity
system.
Here,
that'd
be
an
exercise
in
futility,
I'm
just
building
a
system,
that's
going
to
work
for
my
application.
Okay,
so
in
the
mesh,
every
user
has
a
personal
profile.
A
A
So
all
we
need
to
do
to
affect
change
of
address
is
to
sign
an
assertion
saying
my
service
provider
is
example.com
or
example.net
whatever
and
just
upload
it
to
a
registry
somewhere
that
can
keep
track
of
all
these
and
like
the
pgp
server
used
to
in
the
past,
so
sign
the
assertion.
Send
it
the
server
done
well.
A
No,
it's
2021,
the
harvester
neta
patent
has
expired,
so
we're
going
to
use
an
append
only
notary
log
to
keep
the
registry
on
us,
and
this
means
that
instead
of
getting
that
response
from
the
registry,
everybody
can
get
it
from
their
mesh
service
provider
explaining.
Why
that's
so
important
in
the
paper,
so
we've
got
an
append
only
log.
A
Actually
it's
going
to
be
a
merkle
tree
like
we
did
in
certificate
transparency,
but
once
we
decide
to
do
that,
we
can
trade
in
that
fingerprint
for
a
human,
readable
name
like
alice
at
no
extra
cost
just
hand
them
out.
First,
come
first
served
and
alice
can
now
be
at
alice
for
life,
and
bob
can
be
at
pub
for
life
and
bob
can
send
a
message
to
at
alice
and
achieve
end-to-end
security
by
pulling
the
key
out
of
the
registry,
and
the
registry
is
constrained
by
their
own
natural
chain.
A
So
what
they're
going
to
do
is
every
user
exchanges,
notary
final
values
with
their
service
provider,
they
both
enroll
the
final
value
of
the
other
in
their
own
notary
log,
and
now
those
notary
logs
are
locked
together,
they're
meshed
together,
like
gears
alice.
Does
this
bob?
Does
this
and
all
the
mesh
service
providers
that
in
turn,
do
it
with
the
callsign
registry,
and
so
the
whole
system
is
meshed
together,
just
like
gears?
We've
achieved
full
consensus
across
our
blockchain
type
thing,
but
without
using
proof
of
work
or
destroying
the
planet.
A
Obviously,
if
this
thing's
going
to
take
off,
it's
got
to
be
public
goods,
but
if
it
does
take
off
and
it
works
for
the
mesh,
we
can
apply
it
to
any
other
system.
Just
by
saying
the
appropriate
contact
assertion,
infrastructure
is
created
by
use
not
by
saying
we're
going
to
create
a
global
identity
infrastructure,
but
if
the
mesh
succeeds,
you'll
get
one

free
