Hey all - just wanted to share some of my concerns about the public nature of our casts/behavior on FC.

Hoping for an open dialogue on where we think this is headed, and in the long run, how to provide privacy protections from a user content perspective.

Good read! Hoping there are encrypted channels in the future, but I think the default open data will foster a collective immune system against the abuse that happens on centralized networks. 

Ex: Strong digital identity/reputation + a norm of only trusting media signed by a reputable source.

Thanks for reading!

Channel-level privacy was an interesting idea, and was something I was going to bring up to @dwr.eth once I formulated my thoughts around it.

I'm definitely not a proponent of centralized networks.

I'm less concerned about the individual one-off abuse and more concerned about the masses at scale
