"The server owns your data, owns your account, and owns the cryptographic keys used to secure it.

That last bit is obscure, but important. Cryptographic keys are how we enforce security, privacy, ownership, and control in software. Not your keys, not your data."
— Gordon Brander

What is the key to achieving true freedom and autonomy in our digital lives? We have tried so many times and continue to learn lessons as the natural progression of networks reconsolidates around a central entity or oligopoly that soon turns from providing a service, to exerting its power. Why does this happen and how do we prevent it? Is it inevitable, or are we watching the slow evolution and failing to simply see the clear path it is leading us toward? Today we dive into a fantastic article by Gordon Brander on the evolution of networks, and the emergence of Nostr.
