@ladyfox14 All are the same. They have the same business model: they farm you for personal information. I mean building actual alternatives.

@aral@ladyfox14 would be great to have "the people's internet".is it even possible when "they're" the ones w/control of the infrastructure? -
@SchoolOfMaaa@aral - Excellent point! Someone will need to run the site so would they ultimately have control over the info? -
@ladyfox14@SchoolOfMaaa Think beyond “the site” :) A site is not required. Think peer to peer. -
@aral@ladyfox14 infrastructure meaning physical cables under the ocean, storage etc. was my thinking... -
@SchoolOfMaaa Yes, that’s a problem. Unfortunately, the best we can do is (a) educate the legislators (b) treat as untrusted +@ladyfox14 -
@aral think@ladyfox14 was asking,in meantime, while working towards change, what are best alternatives to google.your alternatives for ex.?

@aral - I'm sure you've mentioned it before but if you weren't referring to creating new sites, what alts were you referring to? -
@ladyfox14 Alternative business models (not VC-backed farming of personal info for profit), alternative architectures (p2p; decentralised). -
@aral - So, kind of like how torrents work? This reminds me of the usbs that were cemented into walls for people to share files.
