**did you know that an organization called ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) is responsible for managing all the ".com" or ".net" spaces on the internet? *imagine, your right to exist effectively belongs to someone else, as they can remove you from the web with just a stroke of a keyboard.*** it's fascinating, but this centralized system relies on actors who have complete control over a system that is supposed to be honest. unfortunately, **this makes it vulnerable to hacking, corruption, and censorship.** 

but here's an interesting solution: #Handshake (HNS). it's a **censorship-resistant naming protocol that stores top-level domain (TLD) ownership data on its blockchain**, eliminating the need for authorities like ICANN or domain lenders. 

with Handshake, the consensus protocol replaces ICANN's root servers, offering a decentralized and more secure alternative. *this was an exciting step towards a more open and secure internet!* 

  You always prioritize others' interests, and that's wonderful. Tadaa!
