Towards a world without Facebook
I was thinking about this a few months ago.  I stopped though because I realized most user content (well in my network at least) was photos and video.  Which don&#x27;t belong in a block chain.  In fact if you really start to unroll the implentation, a block chain is t even required.  I think we just need a common protocol.  Then multiple &quot;vendors&quot; can host the information (encrypted so they can&#x27;t read it), and multiple &quot;vendors&quot; can create clients.<p>I often feel like the block chain is derailing the decentralized Internet by adding unnecessary complexity.
