Overview
The Decentralized Web (DWeb) seeks to return the internet to its original vision of a peer-to-peer network. It focuses on giving users control over their own data, identity, and communications, using technologies like blockchain, P2P protocols, and decentralized storage.
Core Goals
- Privacy: Users own their data and control who can access it.
- Censorship Resistance: Content cannot be easily removed by a central authority.
- Interoperability: Data and identities work across different applications and platforms.
Key Projects
- IPFS: Decentralized storage.
- Solid: Personal data stores.
- ActivityPub: Decentralized social networking.
