Fixing #fakeNews with #blockchain. Pretty interesting solution: https://hackernoon.com/fixing-fake-news-with-crowdwisdom-and-blockchain-2296595d7ccf

https://www.augur.net/ - Augur App https://augur.guide/ - user guide https://discord.gg/faud6Fx - discord (or you can find it at the bottom of Augur App website)

Augur, as far as I know, is more a prediction market tool than a system to gurantee veridicity of written text on the internet. I don't get how it could help.

#Blockchain as continuous historian server for industry plants. We will have to wait for side-chains or x1mil performance growth.

Augur.net (Predictions market + blockchain) is move in this direction. "Orange juice futures prices have been shown to be better predictors of weather than the National Weather Service’s forecasts."

Interesting. Do you have any link on it?

I disagree that it's amazing, and I don't think people have ever been completely anonymous online or in real life. It's a spectrum. Facts and opinions shouldn't be anonymous, they should be tied to reputations. I think internet culture will be improved with more verification.

Somewhere will be more controlled anyway. Imho we need systems good to authenticate without identification. Encryption and PGP are good starting points but not enough to avoid fake accounts.

Not blockchain necessarily but definitely cryptography. Simply make crypto verification easy enough for normal people - ideally built-into social+news platforms. Also, increase barriers to creating accounts. Force people to be accountable for what they write or share online.

Yeah, identification for sure will help but... do you think internet will have to survive only in an authenticated way? Anonimity is one of the (amazing) power of internet.

(BTW, the peeps you write here are cryptographically signed - no one can fake that you wrote what you did, or alter what you wrote)

Yes James I know, I was refering to https://openai.com/ AI and its capabilities. The same applies to fake videos. Do you think blockchain can help somehow?

Feb 19, 2019 16:01

Do you think #blockchain can help avoid fake AI created videos and or news text in the future? How?

Thanks Emanuele, I'll look into hosting it myself.

Don't make me fall in love with Peepeth, please. :-P

It would be nice, one day, to have a notification system built on blockchain: a smart contract issue one msg to an address. A personal application checks for new messages on your address.

Good points. I'll consider using a different email service. Let me know if you have any specific suggestions.

Is it too expensive to self-host the mail notification service? I am concerned for privacy: why sendgrids needs to know when I receive a notification and when I decide to explore it?

Replying to @Bevan (0x30755d3e65c0cf46c35b72d11e52d941c5fc3a3e)

Thanks for the feedback. One way is to simply turn off email notifications and then check the bell icon. Let me know if you have any other suggestions for improving notifications.

That way I would not have any pushed notification. Checking the site would destroy the real-time blogging workflow since you cannot check it continuosly.

Feb 18, 2019 14:39

Is there any way to get Peepeth notifications somewhere else? I don't like email notifications and moreover I don't like the monitored (sendgrid) url used in mail notifications.

My first peep in mobile! (I am using Coinbase Wallet: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/coinbase-wallet/id1278383455?mt=8 ).

It’s pretty crazy. For most intents and purposes social media was already permanent in that people can quote you, but this takes it to another level.

Tweets are not permanent, you have visibility only on your last ~3000 tweets. #Peeps are forever.

Definitively.

This peep will survive me. (OMFG!)

Climate Change and Global warming: let's start saving on a blockchain a daily climate history. It will be an unconfutable way of showing real values to the man of the future. #GlobalWarming #ClimateChange

Replying to @jm9k (0xa7bd09daab3eb5ec96f04914d94c47681489d604)

It very well could help reduce spam and scams. There are actually a lot of great ideas on how to improve the mail system. Unfortunately, it’s very difficult to change such a deeply engrained protocol. You have to get all the big companies to both agree and change as well.

Yes, I know it's not an easy transition. Who knows if in the future the big companies will catch the ball. It's an interesting way of saving money (spam has a cost!).

Feb 16, 2019 11:37

Do you ever ask yourself if you will live enough to see a fully operational decentralized world wide web? :-)

Feb 15, 2019 21:40

Could a blockchain based ranking system avoid/reduce spam on emails? One big smart contract listing/updating the score of an address (each email address could be associated to one key) could work, don't you think?

Feb 15, 2019 09:09

This is my first Peep in history. I love decentralized web. :-)
