Farcaster

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.

broadly speaking, there are two kinds of social networks - public (twitter, reddit) and private (facebook, snapchat) 

in a private network, encryption matters a lot because what you're saying should only be seen by trusted friends. 

in a public network, it doesn't matter because the intent is for *everyone* to see it

the expectation of privacy on anything blockchain is kind of far fetched.  The whole idea is that its public and verifiable, onchain is the polar opposite of private.

metal casting, 3d prints,
AI, robotics and mashups of all of these things.

Farcaster isn't on any sort of blockchain. It just integrates very cleanly with blockchains.
