I want to build an open protocol for building p2p apps that don't rely on any central servers. For this I'm looking into BitTorrent's DHT for discovery, libp2p for connection and encryption. The idea is that you own your identity, you pick who you trust, and nothing gets stored on servers you don't control. It will work for things like messaging, photo sharing, and private networks where you want real decentralization/federation, not just a blockchain slapped on top of the same old client server model.

  What does ActivityPub protocol lacks in your opinion?

    The infra intended here exposes TCP and/or UDP connections, it is protocol agnostic; so end-user apps can use smtp, http, activity pub, at protocol, etc. I am going for an infra that can scale by leveraging the DHT as DNS and p2p for end user apps/apis.

Perhaps tongue in cheek, yet I wouldn't call this nsa.tech as it does not instill trust. Note that the Docs and Github links on the site do not work.

  Thank you for letting me know, I’ll update both links asap.
  nsa.tech is a domain name I acquired some years ago for fun and I’ve been meaning to use for some time now. I understand that most people know of an agency that uses the acronym but hey! We’ve been thinking “network secure access” around the office ;)
