Comment on Decentralization for the web

Comments

Would someone kindly summarize the author's main idea?

So far a DHT is the latest method, and diaspora is the previous.

If people want to have true freedom of speech, or better privacy (or just enough), I really think there should be no server at all.

I really want to see an unmoderated decentralized forum. Even 4chan is slightly moderated.

That already exists, it's called Frost and runs on Freenet.

Thanks. All the author does is define the three terms?

I don't want to be lazy; I did look for some sort of thesis or argument but I'm not going to read that long paper without even knowing what it's about.
