Is there a way where an opensource version of facebook could get developed with encryption settings for your friends only, or settings modified to the level you want your account open and done with the internet as the infrastructure as opposed to a central datacentre.
If this could be done then it would be very popular if poeple know that heavy encrytpion would keep their info safe and friends can share personal info without fear of who is reading it. Infact this would leave facebook dead in its tracks.
Any ideas programmers?
Facebook can be set so only your friends can see it anyways and can also be configured to only allow https or you can do it yourself with https everywhere or other similar plugins.
If you want to design a new social networking site go for it, there are plenty around to copy
Though i dont get your analogy with bitcoin, before you explain Bitcoin to me I know what it is and have used it since its inception. How do you relate the 2?
